Where did the weekend go?

My weekends are too short. I wish I had an extra day to rest up because I am still super tired.

The ping pong tournament did not go to well on Saturday afternoon. I just was not that interested in playing, so I was not disappointed with my poor finish. I didn't really provide much competition for the top players, and I didn't really even hang close with FlyingV, who I am usually fairly even with when we are both playing well. I only beat one person at the tournament.

I spent Saturday night at FlyingV's condo. He recently bought an NBA Jam arcade game and had a few people over to break in the new toy. It was really cool! I had a blast playing four player games all night with a few other people that came over. I delivered two vicious beats to FlyingV last night in NBA Jam. The first one was when FlyingV had a breakaway with 5 seconds left and a two point deficit. He was Utah (Malone-Stockton) and I was Charlotte (Mourning-Johnson). FlyingV stopped to shoot a jumper so that his last shot would get off on time, but Karl Malone instead went for a stylish dunk. Time ran out with Malone still in the air, and I won the game. The other vicious beat was when RoopDogg and I were Golden State (Webber-T.Hardaway) and FlyingV and UNICorn were Houston (Olajuwon-Horry). The bad guys had a two point lead with time winding down in the fourth quarter. I was controlling Chris Webber and had the ball with time winding down. I was able to create an open three point shot with Webber, who does not shoot three pointers very well and has a clutch score of zero in the game (must be for that timeout at the end of the 1993 NCAA final). Webber's shot bounced off the rim, hit the backboard, and went into the basket. RoopDogg and I celebrated a glorious victory and FlyingV whined about his bad luck. Haha!!!!

Sunday was a pretty lazy day. I got a wonderful 7 hours of sleep because I cannot sleep past 9AM no matter how late I stay up. After watching the US hockey team prove once again that they are not going to win a medal this year, I went to the gym for a quick workout. I returned to watch Canada's hockey team get shut out for the second consecutive game. Can anyone in North America play hockey anymore? It's been a pathetic olympic games for the US and Canadian hockey teams.
