Losing and winning

I was playing pool with wl the other day. Have not been winning many games against him. In fact I was commenting I was like Peter Crouch went he was undergoing his goal drought: just cannot get the final touch in. But it did not really matter to me. Somehow the feeling is very different from when I started out playing pool a few years back. Then, it would be a case of trying to understand why I lost, observing how others play, more careful planning of placement of balls etc. But now, it is really "it's just a game".

I'm really past the stage now. So u will only see a half reluctant Wrath diving for balls when he tried to receive as his knees will probably give way as soon as it contacts the ground hard enough, a totally reluctant Wrath when he tries to spike as his back will complain after one or 2 hits or a totally not bothered Wrath when friends ask him to go work out when there is no more motivation for him to train hard any longer. He is now a has been.

Jq passed a set of vcd to me today. I was the one who recommended he buy it. It's a japanese show which revolves around a volleyball player. How can I not watch a volleyball show right? He commented that after watching the show he felt motivated to train and we should feel the same too. Will I? Maybe the Wrath of yesteryear. Or yesteryesteryear. Or yesteryesteryesteryear...
