Football

I'm over the idea that the Vikings aren't going to make the playoffs, and decided to watch a GOOD football game last night.

The Chargers came back and now they AND the Chiefs are both 11-3 with two games to play.

THAT'S what good football looks like.

The Vikings haven't resembled a team like that since last year.

When I was younger, I wanted the Twins, Vikings, And Wolves to make the playoffs.

Now that I'm older, I want to see them win championships. Making or not making the playoffs is no longer a big deal. If they aren't good enough to win it all, I just don't want to watch them that much.

I'm not a bandwagon fan, or a fair weather fan. I am a fan that likes to watch the very best.

It's like movies or TV shows. I don't watch all of them. I watch the ones that are great.

Why watch mediocrity?

Yes, my home teams have nostalgia value. Yes, I root for them. But watching a full game, especially when they're losing, is just a waste of time.

There's always something better to do, and that's what age has taught me.

Time is important. Losing teams are not. Even if they are home teams.
