I Am Not A Sports Fan

Growing up, my dad watched a lot of sports.

Baseball. Football. Hockey.

The Mets. The Jets. The Rangers. All New York teams.

The only sport he never really watched was basketball. I'm not really sure why he didn't watch that particular sport. You would think that growing up in a house where there was sports on the television so often, that I would be a huge fan.

Not so much. My husband isn't a sports fan either. He'll watch the races, but that bores me. In fact, I think the only sport I would consider watching would be hockey, and living in the South now, hockey is not that popular. Football seems to be the favorite around here. Close behind that would be basketball. In fact, I hear a lot about basketball betting, with people trying to make some easy money. The thing is, you have to know what you are betting on. Randomly picking teams, which is something I would totally do, is not a smart way to bet. You need to know the team, and the stats, and all that other stuff that makes no sense to me.

I think I should just stick to my reality shows, and let my sisters bet on the games.

I don't do sports either and living in Alabama that's considered a near-sin!

leigh! How have you been? I haven't heard from you in quite a while, and when facebook booted me off my old profile, I don't think you accepted my new friend request. I'll have to send another. Are you still blogging?
