The A&M Water Polo Game

I went to a water polo game today! A&M hosted a club tournament. They competed their team against other schools' teams most of today continuing through tomorrow. It's been 4 years since I played and probably 3 years since I even watched a game, so I was surprised at how much I instantly got into the game. Everything, terms, lingo, strategy, experiences, all came rushing back during the first quarter. I wish there were more water polo games around to watch. I kind of want to play some again, although I'm still so hopelessly out of shape. It's something to work towards though. =)

In terms of the game itself, things were pretty one-sided. The game was A&M's team vs. UT's B team. I forget the exact score, but A&M had a 15 point lead which constitutes one count of rape. I think if I ever have kids in sports, I'm going to be an annoying parent to deal with. I kept wanting to tell them 'tighten up', 'drive!', 'someone cut to the side and give the goalie someone to pass to!' Yeah, I'm probably going to be that asshole...
