Okay, last weekend had to be the worst weekend of my sports cheering life! Every team I rooted for in any sport lost!
First, our hometown Shelby Tigers got dissed by Whitehall. Okay, I can live with that. Then the next day Kentucky lost, Michigan lost, teams I don't care about but rooted for anyway lost. And I went "ofer" on pro football. Every team I gave a hoot about lost.
Now I approach this weekend gingerly.
First, I am rooting for the Steelers. Not because I am a Pittsburgh fan (I grew up jealous and despising the "Iron Curtain"). I like Bill Cowher. He's class guy and seems to love his wife and kids. I am also rooting for the Seattle Panthers or the Carolina Seahawks. I don't know. But it should be a good game. I guess I'll root for the team that needs to come back to win.
Second, I always root for Kentucky. Even when I go watch Glory Road I will wear my Big Blue jacket and probably scream my fool head off for Rupp's Runts. Kentucky finally has their offense clicking.
Third, I just hope to have a decent sports weekend. I need no more bad ones. Besides, I need a reason to preach on Sunday.
