survive and advance

That is exactly what we have to do tonight.

Survive and advance.

I'm fine with playing the Ancient Warriors again. We played them the other night and we didn't shoot, rebound, or defend in the transition very well, yet we were still in striking distance at the end.

This is our 3rd straight year playing in this league and each year our team composition has declined just a bit. This is evidenced by our record getting worse and worse. In fact this was the first year where we had what I will call a bad loss. And we had two of them.

On the flip side of that we also had our best win ever this season by knocking off One on One.

Well tonight we can forget it all and play a 40 minute game where the loser has to wait until next June to lace them up again at Thoreau. Who knows who will be back? Who knows who will be new?

Quite honestly...who freaking cares?

I like the Vets by 3.

I also like the amount of whining/complaining to be rather high. We come across the most complaining in our games against Ancient and One on One. I think both of those teams are just used to showing up and beating some garbage like VIKA or Birdie's Squad every game. They don't like to have somebody show up and make it hard to hit shots or get around screens.

Oh well.

You guys had those guys rattled on Monday. If it wasn't for those momentum-killing bogus calls by those so-called refs, you guys would have been fine.

Just remember - go for the knees, those guys are old and can't take it :)
