The Sport I Don't Like

Last night was the last indoor frisbee game of the season, and while we were on our way there, I was glad. Don't get me wrong, I love playing frisbee and I love playing frisbee in the winter. But last night we had a great dinner with good friends and I was more interested in having drinks on the H's couch than I was with "making good cuts" (especially with all that food in my stomach).

But like every night at frisbee, after about two minutes, I was totally into the game and so glad that I was there. So,I realized as I was standing on the side lines, sweaty and thirsty at 10 o'clock on a Friday night, that I really love sports. Why else would I spend my Friday nights at the mercy of the frisbee schedule, especially when we played often this season at 11 pm? I love running around, I love the competitive spirit, I love just being around people that like sports the same way I do.

At dinner, good friend said to me, "is there a sport you don't like?", and I had to think about it. There are sports I am not good at, (swimming, hockey, soccer) and there are sports I don't like watching on TV (soccer, football) but otherwise I couldn't really think of a sport I really don't like (except maybe wrestling with my bro, A- I always lose). For the first time ever, while I was watching my team play frisbee, I said to myself, (in my head of course), "I love sports." I don't think I had ever thought about it so simply and directly before. It was nice.
