Brandon is really good at basketball. However, I was really nervous when the game was about to start and Brandon's team had 4 guys, with no one on their way, while the other team had 9 or 10. The funniest part of the team was that in addition to the or 9 or 10 players they had 3 "coaches". How do I know they were the coaches? They were all wearing suits, holding clipboards, subbing guys, and yelling instructions. Mostly they were yelling, "THEY ONLY HAVE 4 GUYS!!" They kept saying this throughout the whole game and apparently the players weren't catching on because there was always a guy wide open for a nice 3. Brandon's team was ahead the entire game, I'm not sure what the ending score was but at one point they were ahead by 34.Hopefully Brandon and his friends can add a few more guys to the roster before they get moved up for the tournament. They might be able to dominate in the middle division with 4, (they didn't sign up early enough to get in the upper division) but if Brandon wants that t-shirt before he graduates he has to break the 2nd place curse.

I know the 2nd place curse too well. But it is always a good start to the season to dominate by 34 with 4 guys.
that was actually me who commented (in case you couldn't tell).

My BIL used to be on an intramural b-ball team at the Y named "Def Leppard" that was like the team Brandon played, only worse. They had coaches (of course in suits) with headsets, they all wore crazy distracting costumes, had halftime shows, player intros, awards ceremonies, etc. One guy only took half court shots. One guy had a prosthetic leg and took it off to make a shot. Oh, good times!
Wow, I'm impressed! Brett is going to play on the ward team I think, which means more like 5th place curse. :o) But they have a lot of fun!
That game was awesome! Even though I feared for our husbands lives and tempers the whole time. The best part is, they were complaining at the beginning that we only had 4 guys, as if they were going to quickly dominate and they'd be bored. Craig said the only guy not complaining was one that they play with at the RB..he knew better. I'm so glad they not only won, but by 34. That will give something for there coaches to think about and plan for next game :) Is Brandon's head/back doing okay? That made me so mad! Hope he's ok
blasted 2nd place curse!!! i was thinking about driving down for the games but maybe if my name stays off the roster the curse will be broken. :)
You know what your team needs? Oh yes, it needs some Ballou. Then it'd be more like 8 on 5, because, well -- I taught The Creep Show everything he knows.
That was Dave, if you couldn't tell;)
This may be just me but if you squint just a little more and stuff some grapes in your cheeks you would look just like Calvin!
