Why I like sports

Sports never leaves you alone on a Friday night to fend for yourself.  If you turn on your tv, radio, or computer on any night of the week, you'll find something whether it is a baseball game, a football game, a boxing match, or a horse race from Dubai.  Sports never plays with your heart and tells you that they'll love you forever.   Sports never breaks a plan or a friendship.  You can turn on a game and totally lose yourself in the drama of the moment of the game.   You can feel the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat along with your favorite team and your favorite players.  Even if you are defeated, there's always that old familiar Brooklyn Dodgers slogan, "Wait till next year!"   There's a certain cadence to sports in a man's life, and I know I sound crazy if anyone else reads this at any time.  But I don't care, I'm watching the game.
