that is in reference to single elimination tournaments, like the one i played in this morning. all avp qualifiers are held on the thursday proceeding the main draw portion, which consists of all the professional players (who are so sick they no longer need to qualify to play) as well as those who qualify on thursday. so my partner and i lost our second game 26-24 to ultimately lose the match. always tough to lose a close game because you taste victory, it's gone, and then that bitter taste lingers in your mouth. but hey, we played in our very first qualifier and didn't get demolished by any means so i'd call it a good day.
although, i DID pass up the opportunity to shake phil dalhausser's (recipient of 2008 olympic gold medal in beach volleyball) hand because i was too focused on getting a dollar to add to our parking meter. absolutely ridiculous.
ahem...sean rosenthal (also 2008 olympics) :)
ReplyDeleteyou REALLY did want that dollar!
