Sorry for the day delay, but I didn't have a lot of time at my computer yesterday. Two nights ago we were able to shake off a really pesky second division team in Afula by about 12 points. This was not an easy game by any stretch of the imagination, as we were down by 8 at one point late in the 3rd quarter. Personally, this was a good game for me because I played a lot of minutes. I knocked down and three, and hit some free throws for my scoring, but early in the 4th quarter something happened to me on the court that has never happened to me before. A guard for their team, a veteran who spent some time in the first division earlier this season, purposely tangled himself up with me, trying to instigate something... When I didn't respond except for holding my ground, and bumping him off me a bit, he fell to the ground, and as he got up, grabbed me in my lower male body region. After he grabbed my right testicle (I'm trying to be as PC as possible here) I stormed over to the ref, pleading to him what the hell just happened, but he didn't seem to care all that much. I was pretty furious, but the guy who grabbed me received a technical about a minute later for his 5th foul, and he was out of the game.
Like I said, we ended up winning by 12, and now we are headed to Tel Aviv for the 'Cup Final Four' which takes place in Mid- February. It will be a pretty cool experience, and we are looking forward to it.
Next game is tomorrow night, at home, against Bnei Hasharon. This will be our 11th game of the season, therefore meaning, we have reached the halfway point.
My parents are on their way to Israel as we speak, so it will be pretty awesome to have them over here, and at a few games. I don't know what we have planned in terms of sight-seeing, but I am sure they will want to do something!!
