Well, that was tough.
We blew a 10-point lead with 4 minutes left and ended up losing in overtime. Basketball is a funny sport. At times, when you're "in the zone" and everything seems to be clicking, you feel like you can't be stopped. Other times, things are so off you think to yourself, "aye caramba...you don't deserve to play ball...go back to Age of Empires where you dominated virtual civilizations and reigned king."
In other exciting news, my shoes broke in the game (I'm now 0 for 2 with basketball shoes in Latin America, as I lost my first pair on a bus traveling across the jungle from practice). I'd like to think the shoes broke because of my blazing-fast speed and super-natural agility. A more plausible explanation is a particular shoe company's sweatshops weren't paying a particular worker enough, so said particular worker decided they were going to half-ass shoe production (I don't blame them) and a particular helpless and poor basketball player in Costa Rica gets the short end of the stick, as said helpless and poor basketball player can't afford new shoes.
Okay, enough complaining. Time for Age of Empires for a moral boost. And Choco Kong.
