Summer is almost coming to an end. The news programs all have been reporting that the autumn air should be hitting our region soon. I feel the difference already, however the nights are still relatively humid so I still leave the AC on at nights.
I bought a grill earlier in the summer but never got around to use it. I want to use it at least once before summer officially ends, whenever that is. I joined a new basketball team recently. I actually came up with the name, "Team Hyper Force". The leader of the team wants to do a BBQ sometime in the coming weeks. I hope to get some usage of the grill at that time. I've been to about 3 practices with this team so far. People are still coming in and out, so I'm not sure exactly who will be regulars but so far everyone that I met have been nice. The team as you can guess is brand new which is why I had an opportunity to name it. Our name is officially registered in our part of the city. The guy who organized it ultimately wants us to enter basketball tournaments. Honestly right now, we suck, especially yours truly. During the few practices, I've attended, I've been Mr. Turnover and the brick layer. There are a couple good players that I've seen but for the most part everyone is a little past "beginner" level, at least from my perspective.
Joining an official Japanese club/team near its inception is really interesting. I've never been a part of one before, but the feeling is exactly like a club that you join when you are in Junior High/High school. There are meetings within practices, self appointed leaders, and assigned areas of responsibilities. One of those practices, I remember I was shooting around with some other guys and then I heard a voice saying "The leader has called a meeting.. everyone gather around". So everyone stopped what they were doing and formed a circle around the leader. I've been watching some Japanese dramas taken place in a high school and the exact same things happen. Its really amusing.
Finally, I've been wondering what I should do with NFL FFL. I belong to two leagues, one of those leagues is free and the other one has a 20 dollar buy in. I always loved doing fantasy but this season I haven't been keeping up. I want to, but work has made my life pretty much one dimensional. The deadline to decide whether to be active or not in my leagues is later this week. Hmm.. what should I do? If I do join, I have to find out who the studs and sleepers are for this season. Got any hot picks?
