Halftime
| That band..
Bad Omen #1 before the game day when right after I got my
tickets to the game my boyfriend...err fiance..told me he
won't go to the game because it's the freakin 1st day of the
NFL season. I'll REMEMBER THAT!
So,
mom came along. After my last trip to a game last season,
I tried to remember things so that I'd have a better chance
meeting the team or just seeing them up close. Well, now I've
got to remember next year to watch for the team walking from
the hotel, past the restaurants upstairs to the arena if I
want to cheer them on. (I was sitting having lunch when I
saw Kamila then the rest of the team). Anyway, I dumped mom
(she went shopping) and went in for pre-warmups. I scored
some front row seats behind the hoops on the Sun bench side.
I caught LJ coming out of the tunnel for the team streches
and got her to sign my shirt. I'm psyched and my old man will
never get the sharpie back!
On to the game. First half. All I can remember is the ball
going off the rim for quite a while. LJ's streak of consecutive
double digit scoring only too under 12 minutes to achieve.
I don't know guys, they look a little confused on who was
suppose to be where and when. At points I saw LJ directing
traffic. Were they up late last night gambling?? The buzzard
went off and I said, OK, LJ will have her hair braided and
they'll kick some butt in the second half.
Bad Omen 3 & 4 only 1 bottle of diet coke left (I had
to drink regular coke) and LJ came out without her ass-kicking
braid. I should have given her my hair elastic!!
I
think they just ran out of gas. CT outrebounded and just kicked
their ass. As much as I hate Sally Bell. I think I only saw
1 or 2 fouls that were questionable. Oh yeah and what's up
with Nykesha and that #1 finger point to the sky when they
scored and Storm called time??
Well..it's
the last week and I can't see this team, at this point going
past the 1st round of the playoffs. I think the Olympic break
screwed us.
Oh,
funny story before I go, this lady sitting next to me asked
me who #15 was on the court. I said Lauren Jackson. She says
"OHHHHHH that's your sister right?? You two look so much
alike!!" I had to laugh at that. I was flattered but
I told her no, I'm just a fan.
BTW, my mom loves the Storm now and she cheered them on right
to the end of the game!!
LET'S GO STORM!!!!
