For the Love of the Game

Some of you may be wondering why I suddenly have fight songs, and other football themed music on my blog. What can I say, I've caught the fever. Football fever that is. I can appreciate a good sporting event. I love to go to Indians games. The Cavs playoff game we went to several years ago was AWESOME! I enjoy watching Katy play soccer. But, I usually can not sit in my house and watch sports on TV for hours. I get bored when I'm not actually at a game I'm watching. There's something about the atmosphere of a sporting event that keep me fascinated with the actual game. I especially find it painful to watch a game on TV that has no meaning to me. Take the baseball season... There are six months of games. Lots of games. Lots of games between teams that I don't care about that really have no meaning until the end of the season. But, all that is different with football. I LOVE FOOTBALL. A couple weeks ago as Jared was preparing his talk for church he turned the TV to a football game (wonder why it took him all day to write the talk? too many distractions maybe?) I came into the room to nurse Jacob and sat down. Before long, I found myself completely riveted by the game. I had even picked a team to cheer for. I'm not sure why I love football so much. Was it being at BYU while LaVell Edwards was still the coach? Was it being in the marching band in High school? (yes, I was a dork) Whatever it is, Football is by far my favorite spectator sport. Anyway, now that I've completely bored you.....
