Basketball is my True Passion

During football season,  I sat with a group of boys that would have to leave the game early if we were loosing badly because they would be 'physically ill' by the loss. I always thought this was pretty silly, and not very respectful to the team.  I never really felt that sense of loss or sick feelings.  But now I realize that all those days of secretly making fun of my manly cohorts are over, because basketball does the same thing to me!

Of course, I would never leave the game early -- that's a bit dramatic of course.  But after that totally biased and unfair game on Saturday night. I couldn't go to the library and study as was the original plan -- I was too upset.  The next when I talked to my mom about the game and her comment was "It was a good game." I had to get off the phone. OF COURSE THAT WASN'T A GOOD GAME. And then this morning I realized how much like those boys I was... turns out I'm more of a basketball fan than a football fan -- who knew?


So ladies and gents -- you'll probably be getting the same kinds basketball updates as last year about this time except instead of Jimmer -- you'll be hearing about baby Jimmer (aka Matt Carlino, see above). Get excited!

In other news -- the reason you get this photo from google instead of some high quality photo taken from my own camera is that I'm getting a new one soon! So get excited for that too!
