Wins with the chicken

This past week we had two home games.  We played the first place team last Saturday and won by five points.  We are now in first place so we have to stay focused to stay in that position.  The gym was packed and it was great to have such a strong support behind us.  This past Wednesday we played a team towards the bottom of the standings and won 101-66.  I scored the last two points with about five seconds remaining in the game off an offensive rebound and I guess the joke is that whoever scores the points over 100 has to buy everyone beer.  They didn't make me do it though.  :)

I had a birthday this past week as well.  It wasn't too crazy of a day, but a couple of the guys and I went to our team manager's house and had a meal so that was great.  For Thanksgiving some of us went to KFC to get some chicken (we figured it was the closest thing to turkey :)  It wasn't a home-cooked meal with mashed potatoes and gravy, cranberries, and stuffing, but we made do and even watched some NFL football too.  I have many things to be thankful for.  That is for sure.

Tomorrow we have an away game against a good team so it will be a battle.  I hope all is well back home and that everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

God bless,
Mike

  1. Nice shooting the last two games buddy. I've been following your games on Eurobasket.

    Did you know that my company has an office in Den Bosch? It's funny when I see them on your schedule because I work with people from their sometimes.
