To be here, on the losing side. I went to a Michigan State basketball game yesterday against Minnesota (the golden gophers, what an idiotic mascot) and one of their players, number 45 fouled one of our players, bad. It was pretty dirty. Our number 50 tried to go for the shot with only 45 as defense and after he put it up, 45 knocked him right over, he was on the floor for a while. Meanwhile the entire crowd at Breslin center (besides a small gopher contingent of maybe 15) booed, thats a good 16,000 people. I was almost scared, and it kept going! They booed him for at least 2 minutes until 50 recovered and was able to walk off the court. And then, every time 45 checked in to play, the crowd booed him again and it was loud. Just imagine being the loser in the colosseum with 50,000 wild Romans! To be the one person that the thoughts of so many people is turned against!
Man I would not like to be that person.
On a lighter note, I tried another oatmeal recipe for breakfast this morning, this one with grated apple added. It was also quite delightful although I put a bit too much lime in it (to keep the apple from browning). But with a good cup of coffee and the right company it was very enjoyable. This weekend I'm going to try my hand at croissants! Since there's no school Monday, I thought, pourquoi pas? Happy Thursday!
