I got into hockey a little over a year ago and already being a competitive gal, it honestly reminded me of just how MUCH I love sports.You experience so much with your team. Anger, frustration, depression, but also overwhelming excitement, joy, and triumph. You grow to love these people and who they are, not just through the wins but through the losses, too. And I know that in the end itโs just a cup and itโs just a game, but thatโs not the essence of sports. The essence IS the people. The players, the fans, everyone involved. Itโs just so cool to me. :)
