So last night I suited up and played intramural basketball with my buddies. It quickly went from intramural basketball to an all-out brawl game. First, just imagine what you think a typical Yale student looks like. Keep going. If you're picturing a spindly 5'7" guy with glasses and a hunch from sitting at the computer too long, you're spot on. Now imagine about 9 of those guys out on a court playing basketball. Yeah, it was kinda funny.
As we got playing, the other team started playing really rough. First off, my buddy got kneed in his kneecap and went down and was out for the game. His knee swelled up really badly. Next, As I was driving in for a layup I got an elbow to the nose and the blood started flowing. A few minutes later another teammate went up for a shot and got yanked back down and ended up having his ACL torn. We had to call in the ambulance and they rushed him to the hospital. Not the best game of basketball ever.
I just found out that CAPTAIN PHILLIPS IS COMING TO SPEAK TO OUR NROTC UNIT THIS SPRING. Yes, THE Captain Phillips...the Captain Phillips that was taken hostage by Somali pirates, and then the Navy SEAL snipers killed three terrorists at the same time, bobbing up and down on the fantail of a destroyer...on Easter sunday. That Captain Phillips. I'm so excited. SO excited. Here is a link to a Navy recruitment commercial that has captain phillips' rescue in it...it's the first thing on the commercial. Just click the link to watch the commercial.
