It's No Fun to Lose

While Evan's AAU team is in St. Louis playing a nationally ranked basketball team out of Indianpolis, Keagan is playing basketball locally. I got lucky this weekend; I skip the four hour drive and sleep in my own bed!

But, Lawd, this basketball is so painful to watch. Poor Keagan is nothing but frustrated. He has been named the team captain for his positivty, but he can barely maintain his composure on the court. His team is just so bad. It's a real shame, too, because there is some real talent on the team.

We lost game one big with several of key players benched because of grades. We won game two against players that were predominately younger than us (thank goodness), and we lost game three against a really good team. It was a nail biter, but we came up short in the last few minutes of the game.

Keagan was completely bummed for such a bad start to the season, but I reminded him it was better than last year's start and the 40 point losses we had in Franklin. That didn't do much to pick up the mood, so we ate icecream and called it a day.
