I've been a sports fan all my life, and I still enjoy television

in the stands thinking how stupid it all is....not even stupid, moreso
silly.    Yet this isn't every single game, but it creeps into my
thought pattern more and more.  I think I'm just getting older and
less fun.

I hope your's is a unique disease. I suggest testosterone shots.

I have watched football every year starting 1935, except 1945. It's
repetition to say that this is my 60th consecutive year to watch
football at one school where I live.

I'm not home now but I was in the stands for three games Thursday and
Friday. I'll watch two more from the stands this week - Lord willin'

why no football in 45?
