AFC North Division Champs |
As I said in Day 92, it’s almost a sin to live in Pittsburgh
and not be a sports fan and it’s a
“mortal sin” if you don’t root for the Steelers especially when they are doing
well! I have to admit that I watch the football games
but I usually watch from the comfort of my comfy couch and I am usually multitasking during the game (i.e., bake, write, read, on
the treadmill or I even clean on the commercials). Taking four (4) hours of my time to watch a football game is unusual for this
girl. When I was offered tickets for the division game, I had to push myself to journey to the cold stadium
and experience the game with the “real fans”, even though I am always desperate to find ways to spend time with my son who is home from
college!
Reflection
At first my repetitive thought was regret that I was going to sit in the stadium and freeze when I could be feeling
toasty at home. However, I have to admit that with the right snow garb
it was a blast and a great memory with my son.
It’s even better when you win! Your all one happy group bonded together for
the win. You’re jumping up and down,
giving high fives to your friends and strangers and swinging the terrible towel. That terrible towel
waving experience is so much more fun at the game. Waving it in front of the TV just does not cut it. You actually feel that waving that towel is going to do some magical thing to make the team do better. It’s crazy fun!

I guess I am morphing into a real sports fan. When people I care about enjoy sports so much, their elation is a catalyst for my interest. Now let’s beat the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday.

We who believe are carefully
joined together, becoming a holy temple for the Lord. (Ephesians 2:22)
