Months of not writing blogs has left a void in my life. It's probably not that. It's probably something else that I have yet to discover, but for now the reason for that emptiness is blogging. Sports opinions are what I do best. However bias they may be. Today's may be a long, random one because I have many topics to catch up on.
First let us go back to February. The best sporting event of my young life. Yes, greater than game of the 2007 Stanley Cup Finals. Now I know I live in Canada. And I love sports. Typically, 97 percent of the time (random number) Canadian sports fans only love hockey, or maybe the CFL. Now don't get me wrong I admire and respect both leagues for what they are. And watch any hockey games that are on, and any Lions games and Playoff matches I can spare the time to watch, but the NFL is a game that none of these can compare to. The Green Bay Packers have been my favorite team since I have been a fan of the game. I had a St. Louis Rams hat many years ago, but that was a gift before I'd ever watched a game.
Green and Yellow quickly became my bloodline (For the one of you out there that may read this those are Packer playoff references). I found myself watching any televised game, and enjoyed it more than watching my beloved Lions. To understand how much that means, you need to know my bedroom is painted orange with over sized Lions logos on two walls and paws all across the top of the room. My heart was broken amidst last years loss to the Arizona Cardinals. But I knew Aaron Rodgers would lead the team to some Super Bowls.
Now, nothing excited me as much as knowing the Pack would be in the championship game. I watched every piece of interviews before hand. I was ecstatic to say the least. Greg Jennings, my favorite Packer, tweets were the highlight. Something about his posting scripture made it not just about football anymore. And made my joy in the victory that much greater.
None of this is really structured. Just some random thoughts. I'll be back soon, the Ducks season is getting intense. And I cannot wait to make the playoffs.
