[ kaiser isn't so delusional as to think that he's actually manifesting anything, but it doesn't hurt to attempt to add some mental pressure to the situation. and it pays off in this case, so: yay yippee hooray! ninety minutes is quite a bit of time — almost an entire match, as long as it doesn't go to extra time — he'll make the most of it!!

and it does make kaiser smile just a tiny bit, though in a way that suggests relief more than smugness. it evokes a feeling of: oh, wow. something went right for a change! ]

Then, I want about 30 minutes of street ball. The rest of the time, I want to see a beach with a nice ocean view around sunset.

[ is this asking a lot or a little? put in an unflattering way, kaiser's baselines wants tend to be childish; to say it in a more positive way, they're rather pure. ]
