I've decided that I'm a "sports jinx" - at least as far as professional football goes. I honestly don't think I've ever been to a Rams game that they won. Shoot, lately even if I watch it on the teevee they find a way to choke, even if they had a strong start!
My buddy Jeff has been asking me all season if I wanted to go to a game down there at the Dome. Every other week, though, I'd had something going on already. This week I finally had the day liberated, so off we went, down the Metrolink trail (a fraction of the cost of parking down there!).
The game started off strong - we stopped the Falcons and then went down and scored a touchdown. Unfortunately, that was about the highlight of the game. They were very hit and miss after that. Oh, well - I still love to go to games, whether or not they win. And whether or not it's my fault! :-) Since they are doing so much better this year, a lot of the energy that has been missing the past few years is back. It ain't as loud in there as it was about 10 years ago, but I was holding my ears a few times!
I went with a dark blue swipe this evening for the boys in blue (the Rams, not the police - although I'm thankful for them, too). We won't go to the SuperBowl this year, but we sure have improved 1000%! Go Rams!
Where did the time go?
