Basketball and Football

Between basketball games (tournament play) this weekend, a few of the players held their own Super Bowl of sorts. Paper football was the rage. You can see the "goal posts" in the background, and in the foreground, it appears that the Chalupa was charging down the field.

I didn't know this, but in some circles, this game may be called "Chinese Football".

The girls finished 2nd in the bb tournament. In the championship game they lost 18-20 under controversial circumstances. The other team was awarded two mysterious points in the first 30 seconds of the game, when the first actual basket was not made until a minute and a half into the game! Despite our protests, the score stood, and the parents reminded ourselves that it was only 5th grade girls basketball.

Our wounds will heal quicker than those suffered by the Patriots in the ensuing football game against the Giants.
