A Blog About Nothing

33-34… Lose… We had been preparing for this game the whole year, and we had an undefeated season, with close games, but we always came out on top, till now. We lost by one point. I couldn’t believe my eyes. I tried my best, and still we failed. I felt like everything I had worked for was for nothing, I felt like all I did was meaningless.  A lucky basket, all it took, and just like that, we lost our undefeated season. As the game ended and I looked at the scoreboard, I couldn’t help but crying. I could feel the tears run down my cheeks as my vision blurred, I thought it was a dream, but the scoreboard stayed as it was… I thought that if I looked at the score long enough it would change, it didn’t. We tried our best, and we deserved this win. It kind of reminds me of when the Giants beat the Patriots, the wild card beat the undefeated team… I never thought that we would lose, I had been looking forward to this moment, and now that its here, I just wish I could make the clock go back and that I woulda hit my free throws. Or that I woulda hit those jumpshots, but I guess it was just bad luck. Both of the jumpshots I missed rolled off of the rim, and one of the freethrows was going in and it rolled to the side. All it woulda taken was one of those free throws to have gone in, and it woulda been a totally different story. I woulda been writing about how we won and how hard we worked. But I guess its just bad luck. I woulda been writing about how the tears of joy ran down my cheeks, and not sorrow. But, with this season ending, next season will soon begin.
