*newsflash* sports carnival - day 1!!
making headlines for sports tonight…first day of inter uni malaysian clubs sports carnival…mixed emotions for the macquarie team…first…a word from our sponsors :-
"too much cash???feeling good???email this guy at sunny_sab23@yahoo.com for his bank details…HE WILL TAKE CARE OF YOUR WORRIES =) "
the macquarie team started off with the wrong foot..being trashed in basketball n netball in the first outing…and it seems that this is just one of the days where u find that u r goin down d drain…well..it seemed…
an inspiring strategical change and on court leadership by Paul and Wee Keat half way into the first half of basketball’s 2nd game…againts UTS…limited UTS’s hot hands to just one point in 7 minutes..while macquarie just hung in there…
macquarie made a miraculous comeback..with strong defense…pressuring all the UTS stars..while showing a bit of their own attacking play..taking advantage of UTS’s poor in-d-paint play…and eventually tied the game..before taking a 2 point lead…just 1 minute from time…unfortunately…UTS managed to score a 3-pointer just a few seconds before the final whistle…claiming victory..with just 1 point…personally…ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!i used to like it when Micheal Jordan won games with final seconds shots…but i never thought it would happen to me!!!!!!!!!so…we lost the 2nd game…n eventually everyone had a good time in d 3rd game..eventhough was being trashed by a spirited SUAMS team in that game =)
netball on the other hand…won the remainder 2 matches (yeay!)…doing macquarie proud (im proud of all u peepz!!!!)…huhuhu…n the team was formed..just last night!!!!!!!!!! (and u all save lots of macquarie msa club money…by not hiring court for training =) from d treasurer here : "LUV U ALL!!! =)" ) …hehehe..and also later..volleyball won 1 out of 3 match…and im sure everyone had a good time =) oh yea…macquarie got 2nd in badminton…which is good…in d end…it wasnt a bad day after all =D
to recap..as much as we all wanna win…we shud always be ethical in d way we achieve it..whats d point of winning…when ur team is formed by imported players..that not even malaysians???!!!!and u call this malaysian sports carnival..shame on everyone..(sort of how countries grant citizenship to overseas athletes just to win them medals in olympics or whatever) …all this disgusts me…coz we all have club members that pay to join the club…n they all deserve to go out there n have fun…losing…with dignity…is much better than winning…when we are actually at lost…
to macquarie msa ppl…U ALL ARE GREAT!!!!!!!!LITTLE TEAM…BIG BIG HEART =)
