I met up with some fellow Pittsburgh Steelers fans at a local sports bar and watched the game. Oh what fun!
Now this football thing is completely new to me. As some of you may recall, I only started watching and became a Steelers fan THIS season because I wanted to know more about the game when I attend my friend's FABULOUS Superbowl Party that I attend each year.
In past years I've pretty much gone for the AMAZING food, their wonderful company, and rooted for whichever team was wearing BLUE.
This year's party will be much different. Now I can enjoy the spread, the company, AND actually know what I'm watching on the screen.
One thing I've learned about myself this season is that my nerves are not cut out for all of the ups and downs that take place during those four quarters. MAN!!!
One minute my team is up, then the next thing I know, the other team has intercepted, made a touchdown AND the field goal. Just like that, the score flips. ARGH!!!
I have also learned that FOUR minutes in a football game is like an eternity. Football time is not like any other time on the planet. Heck...even ONE minute in a football game can be the difference between a winning play.
So I went to the sports bar, highly enjoyed the camaraderie and reveled once again in my team going home with the WIN. It was close -- too close -- but they made it happen.
Next week they'll go up against The Broncos. Yuck! I hope they whoop some major donkey a _ _!
For me, there are three teams that The Steelers HAVE to win against when they play: The Broncos, Raiders and Seahawks. Of course, I love ALL wins, but against those three teams in particular, the wins are just that much sweeter.
Now Let the DIALOGUE begin: Are you a football fan? If so, who's your team?
Talk to me...
Til next time!
