Funny Random Guy


This picture was taken at the Surf Shack for Betsy Funk's birthday. This guy was dancing in the mirror for himself, oblivous to everything and everyone else in the place. It was hilarious.


How serious is serious

As much as I or people say, intramural basketball or any type of recreational sport does not mean anything, and it should not be taken seriously, I am 100% sure that is all bullshit. Any division I athlete will agree that playing sports for over three fourths of your life makes you competitive by nature. No matter what the competition is, whether its racquetball, basketball or even checkers, I get soooooo pissed when I lose. Especially when it comes to intramural basketball, I am still bitter that we lost, and the fact that having more experienced refs could have made a difference disturbs me. I get pissed everytime I go bowling and my friends who have never played a sport in their lives beat me, I go home with a chip on my shoulder. This trait will never go away. I have it when I drive, when I'm on the interstate or when I'm driving home, I cannot stand it when people pass me. Even when I'm an old lady I'll probably be the same way. Wow, I have problems, but I am sure there are people out there who feel the same way.

Intramural Championship

Well, we lost. And, I will say it was because of the refs...or maybe my big mouth. But, it was brutal. We lost to the staff team which pissed me off even more because they shouldn't even be allowed to participate in student activities. When it comes to basketball I do get physical. If you push me, I'll push you down to the floor and try to do it again. Basketball was my number one sport probably until ninth grade when my volleyball skills kicked in. But, I have always enjoyed playing and watching basketball, but my passion for it has never overpassed my passion for volleyball. Anyway, back to the game, it was close the whole time and it was a very low scoring game. But, I'm pretty sure my grandmother could have called a better game. I'm still bitter. The last play, steal, that I had, which I was tripped on, could have tied or won the game for us...but there was no foul called, because of my harrassing comments the whole game to the refs. But, thinking about it does anger me still.
