"The ball is round"
-a quote by quite a number of people-




This quote seems to be true actually, mostly during football. Take England for example. Starting of with a dream start by thrashing Greece 4-0 and then bashing up Andorra 5-0. Similiar results came until they lost 0-2 to Croatia. Gary Neville making a stupid backpass and a winning goal by some Croat. This was followed by a 1-0 reverse to Spain. Sunday, they fired blanks 0-0 against Israel.


I guess the same can be said about volleyball. Today, SMK St. George went for competition with high hopes of dominating volleyball once again. Though the squad(with me inside) was rather inexperienced, the coach had high hopes for us. Getting off a shaky start, we produced a huge fightback only to narrowly lose to SMK Kamunting 25-21 on the first set. Then, we again lost to them in the 2nd set 25-23 due to some schoolboy mistakes.



Then, we played against MRSM. This time, we got off to a flying start. Only to blow a huge 6 point lead to lose 25-15. The 2nd set was even worse. Getting bashed up 25-10. Being the linesman, I was falsely accused of siding my school even though I raised the 'in' signal flag when the ball was in. The bribed referee overruled the descision and made it out.




Oh well, at least we know whose fault it is.
