This weekend I am up in Indiana visiting with my folks and some of Dionne's family. It is a great time, and we are really enjoying ourselves.

However! We are good friends with several of the TU women's soccer team players and we really wanted to go watch them play this weekend. Unfortunately, they play in Michigan today, so that is not going to happen. It really is interesting how much more fun it is to watch a sporting event when you know the people participating in it. You want to see specific people succeed, not because of the accrued fantasy points that they can give you, but because you love them as people. That is why, especially if you are in college, you should get to know some athletes, then follow them to their athletic contests. It is way more enjoyable than normal, and it is a great time for everyone.
