Well Stephen officially was in his first basketball game with the team he is playing for this year. And let me just say.... it didn't go well. The lost by over 20 points. It was very discouraging for the guys. You could see by half time the dejected looks on their collective faces.
On our way home Stephen was beating himself up. I quickly reminded him that NOBODY played well and that this is a team sport and he needs to give himself a break. Our boys only get to practice 2X a week and not everyone shows up. We are playing schools that practice everyday and are required to show up. This makes for a very different starting ground amongst the teams. Plus they schools are playing more games than we can.
From the looks of it I would be surprised if we won any game. I hope and pray that I am wrong!!! Next week is game two.
