Dodgeball We Played Our First
Dodgeball We played our first scrimmages in the dodgeball league yesterday. It was a ton of fun... brought back the adrenaline felt in middle school. Except this time, the balls actually hurt, they're not like those foamy balls, and they fly a lot faster. We scrimmaged against 2 teams for a quite a few games and we came out on top for most of them. I think I realy like Dodgeball cuz you its great for anger management. Nothing beats the scared look in your opponent's eyes right before you throw that small dodgeball. Then the sound of the ball making contact against the flesh of your opponent, SMACK!.... ohhhh that just gets me excited. No wonder I always had fun throwing rocks at small animals when I was a kid. We did have an accident though. During one game I while Andrea was running to pick up a ball as her opponent was doing the same, I ran behind her, out of the view of her opponent. When he opponent bent down to pick up the ball, I let my dogeball go as hard as I could with a running start. But at that split second, Andrea picked up a ball and lifted her head...SMACK! Well it wasn't really a direct hit on her head, more of a deflection. But enough impact to leave her seeing some stars. I felt pretty bad and it wasn't the first time I hit a girl in the face. Once I kicked a soccer ball as hard as I could and it smacked my cousin right in the face, dead center, she cried. I'm really sore, I didn't know playing dodgeball would make you sore. Can't wait to do it again.
