Over-Confidant

Being to confidant can become a real problem for some people. Me and a couple of my friends play intrumural basketball and we are pretty good so we talk alot of smack talk. We had a game on tuesday that we took lightly because we thought we were so good. When we got on the court we were joking around and talking to each other, not taking it serious. We were trying to be real fancy and throw crazy passes and take crazy shots but when we were going into the second quarter the score was way to close. So when we got back into the game we were trying to take it real serious, but it seemed like we could not regain our big lead. After the half was over we were down by ten points and we were getting real fustrated with the out turning of the game. It was becoming a struggle for us in the long run, and we were looosing by two points and we had to foul. It seemed like our chances were fading as their lead grew higher and higher, when we finally lost we were so shamed that we just walked of the court. That day I realized that being to confidant can sometimes back-fire and turn out a way that you could never expect.
