Okay, so I should really be doing some homework about now, but instead, I'm going to update my blog.
So far, my classes are decent, I guess. I mean, I thought I was going to get into them a lot more than I am right now, but maybe it will take me a few weeks to get back into school. As usual, I am slacking off again, hoping it doesn't bite me in the ass this time. Like I said, it usually doesn't. I always do fine, but this year it just looks like it might be a different story. I mean, I am not motivated to do anything at all, maybe there is something wrong with me? I don't know, but I'll keep you updated (as if you care).
In other news, Team USA just lost to Canada, 2-1. For those of you who don't know (which I'm sure is all of America), I'm talking hockey here. It was a good game, and it should be a good World Cup (with Canada most likely winning). I really hope Team USA wins, but tonight they looked rather old (they are the oldest team in the tournament). The NHL should really pay attention to how hockey is played during the World Cup because that is how it should be played. What do I mean by that? I mean that the officials actually call interfence (imagine that), and with the larger ice surface, it gives more room for the skilled players. I'm not saying the NHL should expand the ice surface, but it is rather refreshing to see the skilled players at work. In the NHL today, the neutral zone trap is really bogging the game down, and it would be nice to see more end-to-end action in an NHL hockey game. Oh well, even if they NHL does nothing to the game, I'll still watch it (assuming there is a season next year). Hockey really is an amazing game, and if you don't like it you're a communist (there, I said it), plain and simple....
Okay, so my bowling league starts back up on September 13th. I went to the meeting yesterday and we talked about the bylaws and such. If you didn't know, the team consists of my friends Matt, Paul, Donnie, and the team drunkard, a guy named Kirby (he is also a friend). Kirby is an older guy, I think in his mid-40's. We needed a fifth person, and Donnie's dad worked with a guy that wanted to bowl, so we let him on the team. What a mistake that was.... Just kidding, Kirby has turned out great, he is the heart and soul of the team. Last year, we essentially started during the second half, so we didn't get to bowl the entire season. We ended up in 4th place (out of 12) for the second half and last place overall because we didn't bowl the first half. I'm hoping that this year will be a different story. It is a handicapped league, so anyone can win, but I really like our chances. I mean, for one, only one person (possibly two) drinks on our team, so we have the advantage there. In addition to that, we have a nice mix of averages. I have a 170 average, Matt has an average around 140, Paul also has an average around 140, Kirby has an average around 190, and Donnie also has an average around 190.
Well, I guess that is all I have to say tonight. Have a good night everyone.

Robert Esche was outstanding. If USA wins, he'll be a big reason why.
ReplyDeleteI can't see anyone beating Canada though. Of course, I'm biased.
