Football

This afternoon I finally figured out why I don't like watching football on t.v.  I hate it when there is an injury and they replay it over and over and over...  And you finally think they are done replaying it....they go to a commercial and after the commercial, they come back and the ESPN dude says, "Let's recap the last play!"  Inside my head, I am screaming, "NOOOOOOO!!!!!!"

First of all - they never replay the minor injuries.  You don't see a replay of a guy breaking his finger. 

No, the replays are always one guy is running full speed towards his unsuspecting victim and BAM!!!!  Down the guy goes and well...he broke his leg or his arm or contorted his body in such a way that showing me the play over and over totally creeps me out!!!

Take me to an actual football game.  I will bundle up.  I will drink hot chocolate.  I will cheer for your team.  But PLEASE do not force me to watch it on t.v.  I can't handle the replays. 

Today while at the gym, the New York Giants were playing the Pittsburgh Steelers.  I believe the Giants dude totally sacked (Wow - I think I may have used the correct football lingo here!!!) the Steelers guy.  The Steelers guy was watching for the ball being propelled down field and out of nowhere the Giants (and he was a giant!) dude came and plowed into his unsuspecting victim.  The Steelers guy body moved in ways that I did not think our skeletal system was intended to contort.  He managed to roll around and get on all fours and eventually get up.  I bet he will have a headache tomorrow.

Every time they replayed it, I wanted to shout at the Steelers dude, "LOOK OUT!!!!!"  Of course, had I shouted I would've cause a scene at the gym.  I kept those nonsensical comments inside my pretty little head and saved them for you.  Apparently today is your lucky day!!!
