This one's for the guys...



I've realized something. Most of the time, crowds can be the most forgiving allies. Those devoted fans who buy football tickets every week. The admiring public who sit in the rain, wind, sun, snow, or any combination of elements just to watch their favorite players pass the football. They root, they cheer, they scream, all for the love of the game. When they're disappointed, they cuss. When they're excited, they cuss. They allow their emotions to be taken on a wild, up and down roller coaster. Incomplete passes, interceptions, missed field goals, all result in mass, angry yelling and hatred, but with only a good throw, or a touch down, the crowd forgives all wrong doings and cheers with more enthusiasm. If a game is lost, though they go home disappointed, they are sure to return next week with high hopes for their favorite team. Where else can you find such devotion?
