Nate, this post is for you.

yesterday (or technically two days ago, now) i watched a football game. its the first time i watched a whole game on my own and i must say, i was quite dissappointed in the Eagle's performance. It seemed like they wanted to lose. The Bronco's offense straight played us. I'm not the type of girl who watches a game and starts screamin at the screen and whatnot, but i had the TV on mute (so i could do some studying) and i was still on my feet yellin at the screen when they made that last TD.

i have no further insight to offer because i am not a big football buff. i know the rules and a little something about strategy, but my major area of expertice was gained at HS games when i was in the marching band. I just wanted to say that i watched a game and got into it, even though it was a disappointing loss. I see why people get so into watching these games. Its fast-paced enough to keep your attention, but long enough to make it really dramatic and draw you into the game emotionally. I wholeheartedly recommend the experience of watching at least one whole game to everyone.
