I think anyone who has been reading the blog this month understands how much I love fall. However, I have failed to mention another reason I love fall.
Football season.
There is just something about fall and football season that make me feel all warm and snuggly inside.
Maybe it’s the memories of going to games with my Dad when I was a kid. Having no sons, my Dad took me to different games all season long.
We saw college games, pro games. It didn’t matter. If he could get tickets, we’d go.
I love the game of football. I don’t really care who is playing…I just like watching a good game. I cheer for everyone and get excited over good plays, despite who makes them.
Real Man is a Giants fan, so we catch the Giants game every week.
That, in and of itself, is a warm snuggly, homey experience.
Because, we always watch in the basement, with some yummy football snacks, which bring out the kids.
Monkey in the Middle always pulls out his Nerf football and tosses it with Real Man during the whole game. Luckily, we have a dvr so that Real Man can go back and watch everything he misses from Monkey heads getting in front of the screen.
This week, we watched with tortilla chips, hot melted cheese, and pretzels.
I just love football.
I’m not a huge football fan, however, there is something about football that I do enjoy. The get togethers, food, people getting excited over plays etc. Although I’m not a fan it is sometimes fun to be a part of that.
