Sitting on my
couch yesterday, watching the Redskins take on the Giants (yes, for real) felt
like that moment just before you open up all your Christmas presents.
There's
so much anticipation and excitement to the start of football season. I love
it! It means fall is in the air. It means friendly banter between co-workers
(because we're all from different states, we all have our hometown faves). It
reminds me of high school. There's something so fun about high school
football. The lights, the grass, the metal bleachers that are so uncomfortable
to sit on, but it doesn't matter because you're rarely sitting anyway.
This is that
day for thousands of high schoolers across the state... when cheerleaders
rally the school, coaches rally their players, and parents rally each other by
coordinating carpools and snacks. So - to all the athletes out there... enjoy
this moment... and have a good game.
