There have been better days in my basketball playing life. My first meaningful game back since my retirement and I think I should have stayed retired. I shot the ball poorly...airballed a 10 footer....missed the game winning shot with 6 seconds left to play. All in all, I dismal performance.
Granted, I didn't expect to play that well considering the long layoff, but I didn't expect to play so poorly either. In my head I knew what I wanted to do, my body just didn't respond or move the way I wanted. Not only did I have a 9 month layoff from basketball, but I think my body realized I that I am no spring chicken and my body got used to the retirement.
I always said, one of the good things about leaving LMB will be that I can start eating better and maybe work out. Looks like I have to start doing both if I want to get into better shape to play basketball and help the team.
Funny, I don't feel old...but tonight I sure felt old.

Our whole team played rusty! Considering that you haven't played for 9 months plus Chris (strained hammy) and John (not playing for over a year) being new to our team, we were fortunate to only lose by 2. A win defnitely would have been nice though! It should only be uphill from here!
