Go ahead. Hit me over the head again.

What will they think of next?

Rally-score to 25? Why not? Who’s going to miss an extra 5 points, especially if you start every game at 5-5?

“What happened?”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s 5-5. What’d I miss?”

“5-5? What the hell?! I musta dozed off for a second there.”

“No biggie. The game doesn’t get interesting until 20 or so anyhow. I think I’ll go back to the john and wash my hands.”

“Eeeew.”

“Want some popcorn?”

“Uh, no.”

“OK. Try and stay awake.”
