Yeah... that's us too. We stay so busy singing here or there that I wouldn't have time if I wanted to.

That works out nice... because I don't want to.

All I know is that the Pack is the only remaining undefeated team in the NFL!

See... I don't even know who "The Pack" is and I'm just fine with that.

I can live with it and I can live without it. I follow some but not fanatical about it.

I can understand that. Except my dad doesn't like sports either, so we have NOTHING in common

Re: I Grow So Weary Of Sports

While as far as I recall, I've watche less than 60 seconds of any sports on a tv this year(I don't keep up) before the world series, I am enjoying keeping up with and going to watch the ws game with my family (especially since I got a great price in a great spot.) Headed there in a few minutes matter of fact.

My kids play in different sports too, and I enjoy watching them play.

That's a sad state to be in. My dad is into sports. Not crazy into them but definintely a big fan... mostly of football.

I am thankful that my dad and I have much in common outside of sports. I sometimes am reminded of the blessed relationship I have with my parents.
