Well, talk about a day!
First on the docket was running the Instant Replay for the USD Toreros Women's Basketball game against Pepperdine at the Jenny Craig Pavilion. Game time was two in the afternoon. I got to the arena at 11:30.
Most people are reading this and wondering, why so early? Well there is two reasons for being there two and a half hours early. One, I haven't done this position in about a year. Two, I did a little example video on how everything works. That will be compiled with the other mini videos that I'm making for all the positions at the table and will compile them all into one video and then post it.
The game went very smoothly. When USD wins by 25 points that helps. Also, when the referees only come over one time for a clarification and no real reviews, it is a good game!
I also found out that I'll be working the scoreboard on Monday for Women's Volleyball (I promise to keep all comments to myself!). The comment in parenthesis is an inside joke that a couple of people know about. Also, the good ladies in the SID office must really trust me with stats, as they have asked me to come learn/do the stats for Women's soccer this coming Friday. Of course in 2021, I won't be counting goals until there actually is a game. In this time, a game on the schedule is just a suggestion.
After the game, I walked around the main portion of USD and asked folks the opening question on San Diego Street Talk. Which is "what would be the worst movie sequel ever made, and why?" I interviewed 12 folks. The final video is coming in around the six and a half minute mark.
Alright, I'm going to head to bed now so that I can get up and enjoy Super Bowl LV. My pick? The over (more than 56.5 combined points)!
