Double-Trouble

My city-league basketball team hit a brick wall this week. At least that’s what it felt like. We had a double-header scheduled, and only four people showed up! About 10 minutes into the first game, a fifth team member arrived, so we were able to run 5 on 5. Amazingly we were ahead with only four players! At the very end of the first game, our sixth player showed up - so I thought we’d be set for the second game.

How wrong I was.

We won the first game easily, I think by 20 points or so. The second game we played a weaker team - but somehow we just couldn’t play together as a team. We made bad passes. We stopped passing. We took bad shots. We didn’t stop shooting. We ended up losing by 22 to a team we should have blown out. I guess we lost our legs, I don’t know.

We’ll bounce back next week and hopefully resume our winning ways. I think we’re 7-2 on the season, so that’s pretty sweet.

  1. That’s cool Jeff. With this shoulder problem, I really miss sports. Good luck with your team.
