As we near closer to the biggest football game of the year my excitement is paramount. I'm a fan of both quarterbacks but my affinity for Peyton is a bit stronger. I have so many damn opinions about the game and the players and the location the game will be played and the controversy about the lack of hype NJ is getting that I can't contain myself. On the flip side, my affinity towards basketball grows with each game I watch. There are so many games in a season that I find myself rearranging my TIVO schedule just to catch a Knicks game. I replay dunks, watch post game shows, criticize players, it's ridiculous. Sometimes, I'll drive over to my dads and catch a game with him but by halftime he's snoring or worse flipping between the game and the food network causing us to miss big time plays haha (sorry dad but it's true).
It's crazy! But who do I talk to about all of this? Most of my girlfriends just aren't into sports. That's fine. I'm not friends with them for one dimensional reasons. But damn, it would be nice to go out with the girls each week to watch a game at the bar. Instead, i'm constantly subjected to stares and oogling from guys who think i'm a freak because i'm at the bar by myself actually watching the game. It's nuts. Now don't get me wrong, I have friends who enjoy sports but its just that they're typically guys in relationships. I also have a good friend that enjoys basketball but we don't live all that close to one another and she's not really into the sports bar scene :-/
Don't cry for me Argentina i'm not sad. I just find it crazy that more girls aren't into sports. So, as I contemplate where I'll be watching the Superbowl on Sunday, I'll also think about how awesome and excited it will be to watch. I got Denver 31-17....you?
