What hurts more than losing?

Losing to someone who just puked.




David Beckham scored the winning goal against Ecuador and puked all within 30 minutes. Let's not focus on him being sick though. He's an incredible player and this just makes him more amazing.

Barfing during excercise is fairly normal. Right Chris? I still giggle sometimes when i ride my bike remembering when we were mountain biking in Colorado. The trail went up and up and up. Doug rode like a professional for some reason. I walked most of the way. We all did our best except for Chris who did better than his best. He was riding ahead of me up the mountain. All of sudden he just puked, took a pause and then kept riding. Too funny. Dogs do that too when they drink too much water too quickly. Slop,slop,slop... bbbrrrahhh... ruuff! Rufff!




Still. you have to assume if your opponent is barfing, then maybe you have an advantage. You know, because he has to stop and puke and you don't. A few years ago when i was still incredibly immature and also a huge Pete Sampras fan, I was watching what would turn out to be his last year in tennis. He wasn't feeling well. I desperately wanted him to get to the next round so he could play Agassi one last time. In fact, the match was incredibly close and long. It looked like Pete would lose. He kept stopping in between points to dry heave. I thought he was a goner. Also, I happened to think dry-heaving is (was) hilarious so i recorded the match. Pete looked a little green. He was about to serve, walked to the back of the court and barfed. He wiped his mouth and then won the match. Ouch. Of all the wins and losses that guy will remember I think the one where Pete Sampras barfed on the court and then beat him will probably stick in his memory the most.
