i've never enjoyed playing any sports but lord going to games & having a team to cheer for is FUN!! i got invited to watch my city's LAX team play & we made playoffs n i got so into it
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. :)
I grew up playing soccer and was probably the worst and least motivated kid on the team. Having jerk teammates and coaches really soured the whole of sports for me, and I never really picked them up again as a viewer or player until a few years ago. Some good friends roped me into joining a fantasy football league, and I won the whole enchilada in my first year! After kind of paying attention for a season, you start to recognize players and learn about teams' reputations. Soon enough, you're rooting for your favorite team and players!
