So, I remember getting ready to watch that Oregon vs Liberty game. Heard some buzz about it, figured it’d be a good one.
First thing I did, I looked up the rosters. You know, checking who’s who. It hit me then, with Sabrina Ionescu. She was a big deal at Oregon, right? And now she’s starring for Liberty. Made my head spin a bit. Who do you even cheer for in that situation? Felt kinda split.
Trying to Make it Happen
I even called up my friend, Dave. Figured we could watch it together, maybe grab some food. He was game, usually is. We set it all up. Ready to go.
Then, wouldn’t you know it? Right before the game started, my internet just decided to quit. Completely dead. Spent the next hour messing with the router, unplugging stuff, plugging it back in. Even called the darn support line, got put on hold forever. Total waste of time.
- Restarted router: Check.
- Checked cables: Check.
- Talked to robot support: Check.
- Got frustrated: Double check.
What I Learned (Sort Of)
By the time I got some shaky signal on my phone, I’d missed a huge chunk of the game. The whole excitement thing was just… gone. It really got me thinking. You make all these plans, get yourself worked up, and then some stupid little thing just throws it all off track.
It felt kinda like that whole Oregon vs Liberty loyalty thing with Ionescu. You follow a player, root for their college team, then they move on. Suddenly you’re supposed to root for their pro team, even if it’s against someone else you liked? It gets complicated. Life’s messy like that. Sometimes, maybe it’s just better to not get too attached to plans or even sides. Just roll with it. Ended up just catching the scores later. Felt less stressful, honestly. Just moved on with my day.
