Emily kicks Satan's butt!

Last night, Emily kicked Satan's butt!

well, actually...
Last night, Emily's basketball team kicked Satan's butt!

ok, trying again...
Last night, Emily's BB team kicked Satan's basketball team's butt!

one more time...
Last night, Emily's BB team kicked butt against Seton Catholic School's basketball team.

Maybe someone accidentally mispronounced Seton as Satan. Maybe the thought of Satan Catholic School made the other family members in the car laugh so hard they snorted on the way to the game. It was a darn funny accident, though!


Em's team was ahead by a goodly amount. She played quite a bit, and had a major movie moment at the very end of the game. One of her teammates was on the other side of the court, and got the ball. She passed the ball to Em. Em caught it, then shot the ball with less than half a second on the clock. The buzzer rang. The ball went around and around, then finally went in the basket! It was so exciting! It was the kind of shot you see at the end of a movie, you know the one where the shot breaks the tie in triple-quadruple overtime and the underdog team wins in the end, and they show slow-motion shots of the ball going around and around and around... before it finally goes in.

Somebody's mother (ahem...) made a fool out of herself by cheering so loudly.

It was wonderful. We are so proud of her!
