Contrary to what was hoped for in
the Week One talent show, this year's basketball tournament did not go by
the same name as last year's did. Instead, "The Wacky Will Ferrell
Basketball Tournament" culminated in a championship game today. |
|
The final match
pitted the Anchormen against Talledega Nights. |
  |
|
  |
Each team
warmed up before the tip-off. |
|
Quinn, Jimmy, and Steve, the
tournament's organizers, refereed the game. |
 |
|
 |
And Ryan and
Jenna provided commentary. |
|
Teams lined up
in front of their benches... |
  |
|
  |
...and shook
hands as the line-ups were called. |
|
Clouds
gave players much needed shade... |
 |
|
 |
...under which
the tip-off occurred. |
|
|
|
|
The game was
on. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Spectators
watched eagerly... |
  |
|
 |
...and nearby
skate park campers stopped to watch. |
| |
|
|
Though it
wasn't a high-scoring game, it was a nail-biter to the very end. |
| With two
seconds left, and down by two points, one player took foul shots, but
missed, guaranteeing Talladega Nights the victory... |
 |
 |
...which made
them rise from their bench and swarm the court. |
|
Final score:
12-10. |

After the
teams exchanged congratulations, each
lined up for their medals. |
| And the refs,
tortured by having to watch but not play, got in a few shots. |
 |
|
 |
Jeremy, having
scored many of Taledega Nights' 12 points, represented the team in
accepting the trophy. |
