Why do we care about professional sports so much?? We all complain about how overpaid athletes are, and that they don’t deserve it, then of course there is the debate about what team is better, why the Yankees suck because they buy championships, how awesome Peyton Manning is, or whatever athletic conversation. This used to confuse me so much, but then I started to feel the same way, well my brothers are kinda stereotypical guys, the ones who are obsessed with sports. This would drive me crazy, I never wanted to watch baseball and would just look at the guys, this led to me getting a crush on a new player. Once I had a personal interest in it, I wanted to understand it more, going to a Yankees-Redsox game with this interest made me notice the drunks and crazies a little bit less. It was there for me to make me love the Yankees and even though I don’t really hate anything or anyone, the Boston Redsox are pretty high up there on my dislikes. I remember exactly why I became such a big fan but it isn’t one memory since I’ve been a fan, it’s a group of them, a group of memories of pride and happiness.
