Forward looking

 I just suffered through another Jazz ball game and to their credit they actually won! I'm so pleased to see this because they've had so few wins this season. I can't believe I even care whether or not they win or not and this game actually went into overtime and I really thought about just turning the TV off at that point in time and letting it ride. I'm surprised they pulled it off I thought for sure they were going to choke- - the game was in overtime and it was just too anxiety provoking. Perhaps that's why I would just assume not even observe sporting activities and why I've never really liked them it's because someone always has to win which means that someone always has to feel bad maybe I just take the game too seriously and that's the lesson I've got to learn just to let everything go in its own way because it's going to anyway and all you can do really in the long run and sit back and watch. I heard one of the announcers talking during the game that we're just about halfway through the season. As I've watched these guys play ball I've seen how much they sweat and how much they actually do work out play in the game. I never really thought about how hard it is on the players especially like tonight's game is like the third game in about four or five days plus they had to do traveling in between venues. That's all got to have a real physical toll if not a mental toll as well. I guess I should be less critical of these lads playing these games for the obvious pleasure of the supporters and not necessarily themselves but I sort of suspect they like playing this game the game of their lives as well. I'm kind of astonished at how many these folks actually have played with their opponents since they are always being traded one season to the next. It would be a hard life to live even though you're making big bucks in some cases. These guys need a breather now and will be off for the next 4 or 5 days to do to play again Wednesday night and hopefully I'll be able to get a break hit a bit of a rest as well but it's always nice to have something to look forward to.
