On the road to Glory- Episode 4
Since episode 5 premieres today I need to post my review of episode 4 of the epic basketball documentry Intramural Glory.
Things are looking up for Team Unglaublich although Kyle is out indefinitely. In this installment he claims he will be making a comeback but we'll have to see about that. For insurance GM Kevin brings in Matt, a former All-American Division III player. I met up with Matt a few weeks ago. He doesn't say much. Unlike Ledge, his play does the talking. Not to get down on Ledge, he brings a certain attitude that a team needs to crush the opposition before and after the game. During the game, I am not sure Ledge turns his tude into points, rebounds or assists.
Probably the biggest highlight is that Team U actually wins! Has this pack of Internet chosen ballers has now broken ground to emerge as a dominant team? Perhaps. Coach McCue may liken it to directing a soap opera/circus rather than ascending the road to glory.
Now for some pseudo-awards:
Best Scene- Cougar defends Shelby's honor from Ledge. The Cougster may not look like baller material but he's class and this scene shows why.
Best Off-Court Performance- The Ledge. The Ledge lives off hype that doesn't exist and that's why his off-court performance is stellar.
I will also make note that there is more game footage this time and thus we realize that this is more than a soap opera in a gymnasium but a few men's desire to ascend to glory on the wooden floor.
