To be honest, I am kind of glad that the Warriors are out of the playoffs. I have watched more basketball in the past month than I have in my entire life combined. After traveling to Ukraine and Hungary and experiencing things in life that really matter, you would think that something as trivial as a basketball game (or series of games for that matter) would seem pretty inconsequential. I wish that were the case. These games gave me ulcers. Ok, maybe not ulcers but they have given me a bit of anxiety. The basketball games have taken precedent over the A's for me. That is a big deal. Anyway, now that the Warriors are out of the playoffs I can get on with my life. I won't have to worry about Stephen Jackson shooting someone, Baron Davis breaking an appendage, or Derek Fischer shooting 3's. I am done with basketball. No more.
In other sports news, Jake and I have been playing a lot of tennis lately. Usually he beats me pretty bad as I am a fairly horrible tennis player. Yesterday however, I had him down 5-1 in our first set. I was Roger Federer and he was a 5 year old girl. Only problem was the 5 year old girl turned on her overdrive and ended up coming back to beat me 8 games to 6. Jake is a cheater. Ok, he's not, but there is no way I should have lost that set. Yesterday was a bad day for winners. Jake can go to Utah with the Jazz for all I care.

It sucks how easily we can get sucked back into the stupid insignificances of life. One more way Satan can cripple our ability to affect this world for Christ.
