The Google Basketball League.

Google basketball League was held on 13th June in Gurgaon. And as the name clearly says, it was a basketball tournament of sorts among some "basketball players". While some of the players were real players! Others played just for the free jerseys. :D U get no brownie points for guessing the category that I belong too! :P Of course, I played for the jersey! :)

By the by, do you remember all the crap that you were told when you used to go to school about why exactly one shouldn't be greedy? Yeah…well, they were right after all. A little something happened with the size of the jerseys. Jersey - my only motivation behind playing basketball. :( I had ordered a small one and I got a large instead. Its of no use to me now. :(

And now we'll talk a li'l bit about the historic match. Although, me and my team knew beforehand that we were gonna lose, we still wanted to see how bad we lose. I'm assuming that scores don't matter when u're actually playing just for a jersey. So, I won't mention them either. To throw some light on my thought process during those humiliating 25 minutes, here I present you with an excerpt from a rather complicated piece of whatever-you-call-it: At one point during the match that requires great levels of spontaneity and presence of mind, so distracted was this little piece of mind that it actually made me look at the clouds in the sky and silently wish that it would rain that night. Then I was shaken by my own guilt back into the game and I did some major contribution towards our defeat. Throughout the match, my teammates played smartly enough not passing the ball to me. The times that they did pass the ball to me, they were made to regret their decision immediately afterwards. And they didn't even shy away from expressing their regret.

So, I suck at basketball too. *sigh* Bowling being the other game that I suck at. I will never forget that inauspicious day when I broke two of my precious nails, bowling for the first and the only time in my life, bringing disgrace to my team. That day, I contributed single-handedly towards my team's defeat. :-/
