Last night's game wasn't pretty from the Bremerton West side of the scoreboard. That much is a given. Here's what we know: Tyler Whetstine and Matt Sargent scored 13 points apiece; LCF13DP had a new career mark in rebounds with 14 (8 offensive) and moved into 3rd place all-time in Bremerton history; newcomer Matt Kadel is now 2-for-2 in nosebleeds.
Things we don't know: where the ref gets his sweet Michael Bolton haircut (that guy is six months of growth away from being on the cover of the next Queen album); if your number ends in a "9" and you play for Turner Construction, why do you have to be so mysterious towards your sexual orientation; and, lastly, when exactly did Samuel L. Jackson's career go in the tank (Bremerton Press has their money on the shark movie....I think "Deep Blue Sea")?
Okay. Now that the gratuitous opening for today's story has come and gone, we can get down to the nitty gritty of Bremerton's latest tango with T.C. (butt munchers). Hurm....after winning the opening tip, Bremerton took a 2-0 lead....and quickly found themselves down, 30-12. That sufficiently pulled them out of their patented 2-3 zone, into defense with principles of man-to-man. It was still of little help. Bremerton trailed at half by 20.
The second half was a different story altogether. Starting Kadel, Sargent, Whetstine, Roth, and Plous in the second frame, the Westies went on a run and cut the lead to as little as 12, but didn't have enough gas in the tank to come all the way back. Many are comparing last night's loss to T.C. (ass clowns) to that of Memphis falling to Mizzou in the Sweet 16. Instead of saying what better athletes Memphis had over MU, though, pundits are calling B. West's team "better persons...period. T.C. is just full of a bunch of chocolate factory workers." If you weren't at the game, well....that sounds about as accurate position as the author could muster.
Another discrepancy was with the officiating. Tyler Durden Whetstine, never one to keep his opinion of the officiating to himself, called for equally poor reffing on both ends, to which he was told, "I don't want to hear another word out of you!" Several players had trouble keeping a straight face after the ackward exchange. It was about this time that Coach Sargent noticed that the secondary ref appeared to be using "Soul Glo" in his lettuce. Yep, that's the ticket.
After the game, Coach Sargent was unsympathetic to the victors: "I have nothing to say about this game. You can write what you want. I was always taught that, if you don't have anything nice to say that it's better to say nothing at all. I'm just glad that our players don't act like the ones on the other bench tonight. I'll take this moral victory. That's all, thank you." Sargent continued, reading from what appeared to be a prepared statement. "Bremerton West's 2nd Annual College Night is scheduled for April 21st. Bremerton plays at the Hawkeyes that night. Incidentally, The Other Place has been replaced by Maloney's as the official host of the post-game mixers. The first mixer is scheduled for the 14th, with 'official' media release party on the 21st in conjunction with College Night. Sargeque IV is still on for Saturday, May 9th. Evites will go out no sooner than Saturday, April 11th. GFY."
Bremerton West plays at RED next Tuesday at 9:30PM at The Matt.
LATE BREAKING NEWS....Team majority owner / yachting enthusiast Rod Stewart has called a press conference for 5PM Tuesday. No word on the subject, but sources close to situation say Coach Sargent is OUT due to being a "poor fit" for Zoysiagrass Bremerton Nation....we'll have more on this story as it breaks.
