Sports

One of the things I hadn't taken into consideration when moving out here was how our love of sports would be affected. Back in Podunkville, we didn't have tv. We would follow games on the Internet, XM radio, or head to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game. We were able to follow all of our favorite teams (College football - LSU, Baylor, VA Tech; NFL - Saints and Eagles; MLB - Phillies; Basketball - Spurs).

Ok, I was never a baseball or basketball fan but .... the things you do for love, right? I'm doing pretty well with baseball but basketball hasn't managed to enthrall me yet.

Well, out here, it is so hard to follow games. They're usually played at night. In the fall, I got up early a couple of Sundays to follow LSU or the Saints but it wasn't easy. It ends up that you check to see who won and if there were any crazy plays.

It's the playoffs or championship ... something .... for basketball. The Lakers have lost. This is apparently a good thing. And, today (yesterday in the US), the Spurs played an amazing game. I know this because Stewart gave me a recap at lunch and has mentioned it several times since. :-)

Go Spurs!
