Sunday Night Football

Alas, it is a Sunday night and I am watching some football again.  It is 31-10 half way through the third quarter for the Niners over the Pats.  Normally I would make my way up to bed but,  this game is far from over.  With Brady and company,  no lead is safe.  I have been quite impressed with the way San Fran has controlled the pace of the game.  Turnovers have killed New England so far and the Niners have made them pay.  I love this time of year in the NFL as play off races really heat up.  Should be interesting to see how everything unfolds in the last two weeks.

The thing I enjoy about watching sports is that it provides a break from reality.  For a few hours, you can forget about the world around you and just enjoy two teams competing fiercely against one another.  Sport has always been a big part of my life growing up.  They helped me transition in to high school when I knew no one at the school.  If I did not have a gift for athletics,  establishing new relationships would have been far more difficult.  Some of the friendships I made in the first year of high school have stood the test of time and I still maintain some to this day.

I am not sure what my plans are for the week but,  I am looking forward to the holidays.  Our trip to Moncton should be a lot of fun although I will miss Ollie quite a bit.  I really need to get back to the gym soon.  It is important for me to stay active and maintain a certain level of fitness.  I make a living with my body and I really benefit mentally from working out on a daily basis.

That's it for tonight.  Nothing too thought provoking for today.

Have a great week.  Take care,  Shawn.
