Lack of effort pisses me off

Hello fellow bloggers
Well, it was going to happen eventually and I was afraid it might be this week but my varsity girls tennis team I coach suffered their first defeat tonight. I am not upset over losing that happens, and this was a very good team we lost too(also undefeated) what pisses me off is lack of effort, and lack of listening. When myself or my assistant would talk to the doubles girls we would specifically tell them to STOP feeding the net person, and the very next shot what do they do, feed the net person! It's frustrating, and tonight I was so steamed I made the varsity practice when we got back to school for an extra hour! I am hopeful they will learn from this, we had been really close to losing in the past, but our singles girls would always pull us through. Well, tonight our singles girls didn't have it, except for my 1 player who is still undefeated. We'll see if they respond we play another good team tomorrow so wish us luck!

Although, I was in a bad mood I am starting to get better considering I am watching Purdue's 1999 win over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Big Ten Network's greatest games. At times, I can see myself on the sideline, and especially during one play going nuts, it's pretty funny. Good times for sure! Plus Kristen promised sex to make me happy so that always is a plus.

So, American Idol is down to the final four, how exciting. Danny, Adam, Kris, and Allison compete tomorrow to make the final 3. Last week's shocker was that emo Adam was in the bottom 2, I was hoping beyond hope they'd send him packing unfortunately it wasn't meant to be. I am sure that will rally his fans too, which sucks even more. This is rock week, so I am excited to see what Allison the resident rocker will perform. I have gotten bored with Dancing with the stars, although Kris still watches, she's rooting for Shawn. Does anyone watch The Amazing Race? I can't believe what I saw Sunday night, one of the teams stopped to use the restroom before checking into the pit stop, and that was what got them eliminated! HELLO!?! You're racing for 1 million dollars, either hold it, or pee yourself but DON'T STOP! IDIOTS! I am excited for the summer reality shows, of course Big Brother, and So you think you can dance to start too! I am really looking forward to the new fox show Glee, not sure it will last but it looks pretty good, maybe it's the old swing choir kid coming out in me who knows.

I was starting to feel lately like I was going to have to build a boat to get to and from work we have had so much rain. It was ridiculous! Luckily it has stopped for awhile, just hope it stays that way. I have had a cold too which sucks, of course I got it right when they started talking about Swine Flu. I swear, I know the media needs to warn us, but come on I think they stirred up a bigger frenzy then they had to.

Alright off to watch the rest of this game, Boiler Up! :) Even though I know we win

This is what makes it difficult for me to enter the world of high school. Placing my job performance in the hands of kids who think the Jonas Brothers are cool.

I'm sorry about the loss. :( You were kind to only make them practice an hour. I would have been much meaner. :)

Can't wait for Idol!!! Go Danny!!

You should have had your girls run laps to make up for it. Extra laps was always a deterrent for half-assing it.

Congrats on being promised sex though. That ALWAYS makes life better!

Hey Phats!

I keep hoping Adam will get voted off AI as well. I miss Allison already. AND, I'm SO looking forward to Big Brother too!

Thanks for the head up for "Glee"! It seems to be somewhat like "Fame", I think. It's good to know I'm not alone in my interest.

As for your team? Don't worry about the team members - it's the parents who will get ticked about extended practices! :-D

I am sorry your girls let you down- but at least K can make you feel better!
;)
Did you hear about the SA Idols drama? With the cellphone service providers delivering votes late due to a technical hiccup and changing the whole outcome of the season- with the top 2 now sharing the "title" because the girl who was awarded the win was actually supposed to lose to the dude after the votes were properly tallied!
I don't watch Idols, it annoys me terribly, but I can imagine how this result would drive regular watchers insane.

I have basically stopped watching reality TV b/c I have too much drama in my life as it is. LOL

Anyway, next time your girls lose, make them do lunges instead of running. I will guarantee you that they will remember that loss. Their thighs and calves will burn for days. tee hee...

It worked when my cheerleaders thought they pulled one over on me b/c I couldn't make a game b/c I was pregnant. The Dr told me I couldn't go b/c of the distance and being on a school bus. UGH!~
They hated me for a few days!

I have a new man in my life too so spending time w/ him and lil man is about all I have time for after school (my masters), school (teaching), and all the crap going on there.

Have a great rest of the year. Not too much longer here!
