Now before any of you go hatin' on me, I'm nearing 58 so I go back to the AFL and Fenway Park for football (incredible place to see a game if you're not behind a pole). At one point the team was this close to being gone to St. Louis. Ancient history? Sure, but dues were paid. I'm sure you all know where I'm from at this point! First SB win was a few weeks after getting divorced. My mom had a major stroke just before Seattle. Passed not long after. I can't explain how a football game brought me some much needed joy. This year I got stomped on by my employers of 15 yrs because my measly earnings were more than they like. Again I was pulled from the dumps. I know it's only sports but it's been part of me forever! Got that from my dad who sadly left some years back (cancer) but got to see the Sox and Pats become champions. For that i'm most grateful of all.
