well, i'm a guy who many have called stubborn... but i am not unreasonable(i hope). and i know when to admit i'm wrong. and well... i guess i kinda am about tchoukball.
if u've seen the comment, you'll know its from a world silver-medaled player. so my first reaction was, riiiight. this guy plays tchoukball, he can't have a non-biased insight towards the sport. i mean, come on, math professors who do complicated mathematical calculations everyday finds math fun. and we all know it isn't. so i was poised to just ignore it. but... well he sounded like a nice guy/girl so i was like, whats the harm. and i checked out the link.
i know, you guys are all busy people with homework and revision and generally mind-numbing things to do, so i embedded the video itself here.
watch it. you'll be surprised. i was.
our PE sessions with tchoukball made it feel like a pathetic attempt at creating a brand new fun sport where people dun touch each other so no one gets hurt. like captain's ball, except tchoukball isn't fun. its like watching paint dry. with a ball. and trampoline.
but in this video... it feels like basketball mixed with breakdancing and a dash of acrobatics. its fast-paced and looks cool and actually does take teamwork.
i stand corrected. tchoukball is indeed a fun and freaking cool-looking game. but in defense of myself, and all those others who were exposed to tchoukball at school, it was nothing like this.
and world silver-medaled player, ur blog is in French so i can't understand any of it, but if you're reading this, thanks. its a cool sport.
