The Fireside

As many of you who read this blog may know, but I'll flat out say it - I'm a geek. Well, a "normal" (I could do a post about normalcy...when I'm feeling philosophical!) person who has geeky interests, and gets excited over movies, TV, books, music, artwork, etc...various aspects of the entertainment & technological field. (I know that doesn't really make one geeky, but if you know me, than you'd know what I'm talking about!) However, I also like some sports. Watching, I mean. Because of my build, I'd be great for tennis /badminton / squash, golf, biking, walking...those types. Perhaps it stems from centuries and centuries of watching humans compete against each other at something; such as the gladiators back in the days of the Roman Empire, and through cultural evolution, I picked it up. Maybe one of my ancestors participated in or was at a game once in Rome?  Or even further back - watching cavemen or something fight over...

I'm not too much of a football or NFL fan, but I do like to follow & cheer on various teams throughout the finals & championships, depending on the match up. This year I was hoping for a Ravens vs Giants match-up on Superbowl Sunday. It is now Giants vs Patriots (go Giants!). Both teams of both matches (Ravens, Giants, 49s, and Patriots) played well, and both wins (and losses) were quite close.
