cooking up the offense like he's cooking ravioli

We lost our weekly basketball game again tonight. Tonight’s game was really close for three quarters and in the fourth we just let the game get away. The team we played tonight was about as good as any we have played all year, which means we played our best ball of the year (in my opinion) until the fourth quarter.

I scored 6 or 8 points and had about that many rebounds, too. I missed two free throws in a row, which really hurts, and also missed a few shots around the basket I should have made. In my “playing days”, those things would have never happened. There are so many times during the game when I just can’t get my body to move like it knows it should. I guess that’s the difference between playing every day and one hour a week.

No game next week in honor of the Super Bowl. I am pretty confident after tonight’s game that we are going to win at least one game before the year is over.
