LAW 55 - 65 MEDIC

seriously annoying scoreline that is.


alright, here's the deal. yesterday was the annual law versus medicine sporting events. theu comprise of basketball, football, netball, squash, and a few other sports which i really don't care. as a baller and law student i was really looking for ward to this one. one of the very few chances to kick medic butt. that didn't quite happen.

a fellow law student vanessa played them last year and well, law students won. because.. they had two giant black people and the medics just sucked pretty bad. although vanessa did leave out the part where the medics wanted revenge this year.. which seemed very obvious when they came to the courts with a fifteen man team.. against.. a four man law team. you need at least five people to make a team, so we had to sneak in a friend doing psychology and another guy.. who wasn't even from the same university, all before tip off. even though we had just about enough players on the team, but i still looked at it as damage limitation, seeing as how the medics were desperate enought to floor the keele team captain for both male and female and another whole team of black people. sigh. though i did find it amusing for just a split second, the thought, what if our team of three malaysians, one bruneian, one arab, and one russian with a heart problem who never played a single game together .. could beat a team of that size and experience.. funny.

really now, the odds were very clearly not on our side. you could tell, easily, by the spectators on the stands who were booing their heads off everytime we had the ball. but ahh, bliss, whenever your shot goes airborne and the gym just goes silent for that half a second that feels like forever.. and then the swoosh of the bucket, and you form a wry smile, and pace to the other end of the court while hearing everyone on the stands cussing at you. satisfaction.
