WOW!!!! I am loving every minute of this season.... I really feel like X-Factor has turned it up a notch this year! Like, I know I used to always hear people hollering all throughout games but lately my ears have been ringing from the ridiculously loud noise! Its Sunday and today is another exciting game day. During games I sit on the 2nd row of the bench... And a lot of times I wish I could be sitting in the crowd yelling as loud as possible like everyone else. As I get into the games I do have to hold back a lot of emotion because when I do yell.... All I see is one of the coaches or our trainer in front of me turn around and give me a look... Like, "Was that you?!" It does make me feel like I'm just yelling in their ears!.. OOPS :)
I posted two videos today... Just little things. One is of my favorite part of practice, coach Bridget pushing the bigs around and the other is the team shooting half court shots today. Its a ritual they do after every shoot around. Today Dewanna was the only one who made the BIG shot! I am going to start posting daily pics and uploading more videos real soon! There's definitely a lot of stuff I'd love to share with everyone that would be best shared through images!
Big ups to Q!! Yesterday was her 23rd birthday.... She's such an old lady!!! :) JK. She definitely didn't get any special treatment for her special day. In fact, she had to go through the spank line! I'm sure glad I don't celebrate my birthday during the season because the girls on are our team can get some good hits in that spank line!
There's been some goofing off around the locker room as always, but its now turned into people hanging up bad pictures of each other and doodling on their faces! There's a great one of Diana hanging up right as you walk into the locker room... no one can miss it! lol And I have to admit I did one of my own... I doodled on Corey's autograph photo! I am going to upload that picture in a minute! That picture is sitting on our white board.
There's a ton of dogs in the Mercury family now! Lets see... I have my dog, Ella! Ohlde has a cockapoo named Gus, Tan has a silky terrier named Jade, Cappie has two dogs named Snooze and Max, Ketia has a toy poodle named Roman, LeCoe has a toy american eskimo named Aubie, and Bridget has her two Jordan and Paris! The doggy playdates are nonstop!
Well the players are starting to roll into the arena and It's time for me to get back to work! I hope to hear all that noise at tonight's game and leave some of that energy with the Mercury as they head out into a winning 3 game roadtrip tomorrow!!
Til next time,
Denise a.k.a Lil Dee!
