I used to be in really good shape. I used to be able to go out drinking with my friends on Friday and Saturday night and then feel great on Sunday. I used to not have gray hairs. I used to be able to play 5 on 5 full court hoops without getting tired.
Yeah...none of that is true anymore.
I have gained 35 pounds since I met my wife three years ago. I now play 4 on 4 rec league basketball on a short court. I have a Masters Degree in Sports Business Management, and yet my career has nothing to do with sports. So, what should I do? I'll do what everybody else tries to do. I will write about sports.
The difference is, I can do it the way that it should be done. I am a smart fan. The kind that went to every single University of Washington Football game in 2008 when they won precisely zero games. The kind of fan who loves a 1-0 baseball game. The kind of fan that can appreciate when the team that they hate with every fiber of their being has a once in a lifetime type of season.The kind of fan who has skipped school and work to see baseball playoff games. The kind of fan who was able to rush the court when he saw the #1 team in the country go down in flames.
Read it. Enjoy it. Hate it. Say word.
