i dig sports… fun to watch… fun to participate in… tremendous for teaching us about both ourselves and others i think…
for the most part i’m a casual fan… have a couple of teams i follow but as they’re not typically the best ones i find myself watching lots of teams, enjoying whatever happens and just looking to see good competition…
but there’s two events that i’m a junkie for… the fifa world cup and the tour de france…
the world cup is gearing up for another appearance in 2006… germany’s hosting this time around which is awesome because i, for some bizarre and masochistic reason, really like watching games live at 2:00 in the morning… looking forward to that…
and we’re currently in full tour de france mode… i’m an unabashed lance armstrong fan and after losing the yellow jersey two days ago he friggin’ destroyed most of his serious rivals in today’s stage, took back the yellow jersey, and seems like he’s in very strong shape to win an unbelievable 7th tour…
karen and i have been fans of the tour for the last three years and have watched coverage pretty religiously… now kenzie’s into it too… she says “go lance” lots when we watch… its cute…
i hope armstrong wins again… his is one of the more incredible stories in the world of sports that i’ve ever seen… ‘s been cool to see him in action… and the rest of the competitirs can heave a sigh of relief as he’s retiring after this tour to give some other fellers a shot… it’ll be interesting to see who rises to the top in the next few years…
