I see Euros. That's right, plural.: November 2008
http://germany4brandon.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
I see Euros. That's right, plural. Sunday, November 16, 2008. Who knew I didn't have to see to shoot well? We travelled 3.5 hours to play the Ascherleben Tigers. The car ride was a special experience because the new medicine they gave me dilated my pupils. The combination of the pitched blackness of the country night and bright headlights on the autobahn meant lots of squinting and looking away. Thankfully, the lights in the arena didn't bother me. . Oh yeah. Amherst plays their first game next week!

I see Euros. That's right, plural. Monday, February 23, 2009. This morning I went to the doctor to have my knee examined. As you may recall, I came down funny off of a rebound and it just gave way. I finished the game, but I was noticeably favoring it. There wasn't any swelling until the next morning; but once it happened, well, it happened. . I had to look up the name of the medicine online before I took that one, haha. . PS- anyone see Slumdog Millionaire? I guess I should put that on my list. So, this...

I see Euros. That's right, plural.: ... another update
http://germany4brandon.blogspot.com/2009/03/another-update.html
I see Euros. That's right, plural. Friday, March 6, 2009. Last week we grabbed another victory. We played Aschersleben. A team that beat us earlier in the year (yeah up 11 with 2:30 to go). Our starting point guard was out with the flu and a few other reserves were injured, so we went in a bit thinner than we usually do. I was worried that Nick and I would have to put up surreal numbers; but thankfully, that wasn't the case. Speaking of which, Amherst plays Gwenydd-Mercy. Tonight in the first round of th...

I see Euros. That's right, plural. Tuesday, March 17, 2009. I won't even attempt to match Goldy's latest post. From perfectly describing the tension between not wanting to offend your host and actually wanting to enjoy eating to his alter ego bursting out in all its glory, his last entry is.I can't resist.pure Gold. All I know, is that guy guarding me decided it was a good idea to try to sterilize me. After he realized his first attempt was unsuccessful, he tried again. The choice between childre...Twasn...

I see Euros. That's right, plural.: Battle for #1
http://germany4brandon.blogspot.com/2009/02/battle-for-1.html
I see Euros. That's right, plural. Sunday, February 22, 2009. So, this past weekend was "the big game". We played the first place team for sole possession of the top league spot. Usually, there isn't great fan support when we play in Berlin; but yesterday roughly 100 fans made the 2 hour trek to support us. Between the drums, chants, and horns this was the most exciting atmosphere that I've played in since Amherst/Williams and the NCAA playoffs. . Posted by Brandon C. Jones. Check out my business.

I see Euros. That's right, plural.: October 2008

I see Euros. That's right, plural. Monday, October 27, 2008. Perhaps as frustrating as the loss itself was the way my coach handled the adversity. Every timeout was incessant yelling. Not once did he ask a question; every sentence he uttered was an imperative command in a self-righteous tone. I am quickly developing a deaf ear for 90% of the things he says to me during games. . Posted by Brandon C. Jones. Tuesday, October 14, 2008. Wie geht es dir? So, what's happened since my last blog? Well, let's see:.

I see Euros. That's right, plural. Tuesday, December 2, 2008. Happy Birthday to me. Today is my birthday (woo) and I am 22 years old. Even though this is the first time I haven't seen my family on or within a few hours of my birthday, I refuse to be depressed. I have too many things for which to be thankful. After roughly 12 hours of work, Nick and I stood proudly and patted each other on the back for successfully completing our task. Happy Birthday to me! Posted by Brandon C. Jones.

I see Euros. That's right, plural.: Pop Quiz: What's my favorite letter?

I see Euros. That's right, plural. Monday, March 9, 2009. Pop Quiz: What's my favorite letter? Think about it.think about it. While you cogitate on that, let me update you on this past weekend. And that some younger guys played the best they had played all year. Immediately after the game, all of my teammates and the fans chanted for me to do pushups for missing an open dunk. I've never done them in front of a crowd before, that was an experience. C'est le vie. Could you think of my favorite letter?

I see Euros. That's right, plural.: Auf wiedersehen, Deutschland
http://germany4brandon.blogspot.com/2009/04/auf-wiedersehen-deutschland.html
I see Euros. That's right, plural. Wednesday, April 1, 2009. Auf wiedersehen, Deutschland. Seven and a half months later. So my first professional basketball season has come to an end and I'd like to do a recapitulation of sorts; but, I am not sure that's possible in one post. If the sheer volume of of things to share in the last 10 days wasn't enough to make this post difficult, the roller coaster of emotions surely pushes this into multi-post territory. 1) Cottbus vs Halle. 3) Cottbus vs Zehlensdorf.
