end of football season

The past few years I’ve played for an IM football team and we’ve been close to winning the IM championships, getting to the semis/finals.  This year our team diverged from the original group in order to have a better chance at winning, but then we got moved up to the B league.  Our game was close, going into overtime, but in the end we lost.  It makes me sad because it was my last opportunity to get a championship shirt and because the loss was largely my fault for underestimating the girls I guarded.

Today, Texas lost against Baylor…badly.  I hate losing. Entering UT with McCoy as quarterback and getting used to watching our team win and then going to a barely winning record was pretty sad.  I’m glad I got to watch Texas play in a National Championship game while I was a student though.

I like football season a lot, for several reasons.  I like rooting for a team that I care about, getting together with people to watch the games, and sometimes tailgating.  The past 2 years I missed most of the games because of Ultimate, so it makes me sad that the season’s over without having been able to partake in a lot of the fun that comes with it.
