Friday Nights
There is nothing to do on Friday Nights when your girlfriend is over her dad's house in a different state. I'm here with my brother and sister alone while our parents are out on a friday night. I mean usually i'm out with my babi girl, but tonight im sitting at home, watching t.v., surfing the net, and feeling like a coach potatoe. I'm the kind of guy who usually like to go outside and have fun. Not stay inside and be a bum.
After football season has ended for me at my high school (this was my senior year, which means no more football the rest of my life, except for some touch football with my friends) i have usually just chilled at my house or my gf house. I find life very difficult after you lose something you had for such a long time. I played football for 5 years in Pop Warner and all 4 years in high school. And now it's all GONE.
On Friday nights, i would usually be out having fun with my teammates at a pizza place or over somebody's house, but now i'm sitting on my lazy ass and typing into this blog. Kids at my school are like "You can play football in college." And i'm like no "I'm not big enough, not strong enough, and not fast enough." Plus my vision is not perfect (I wear glasses, but not while playing football) Although i love football and it is my number one passion, i realize that i'm not going to get recruit by a big NCAA Division 1 school, and i'm not going to make it to the NFL. I'm not the type of kid who thinks he is the next Jerry Rice.
Although my football carrer has ended, i have tennis to look forward to in the spring. Tennis is a fun sport, but not nearly as cool as football is. I started since i was a Sophmore, so i have a great amount of experience. I think our team is going to do good this year because our whole team is basically Seniors and Juniors. Tennis is fun, but if our school got rid of the tennis team, i wouldn't care that much. I probably would do track or baseball.
Instead of playing in a sport professionally, my dreams are sports-related. I either want to be a sports journalist, or a sports owner. I have watched sports since I was 2, and my dad said I was a natural to be the next Chris Berman, or Jim Nantz. Also, i have always dreamed of owning my own sports team. I want to own my own business one day, and why not have it be a sport's team. Over the past few months i have become very interested in hockey. My favorite team is the Boston Bruins, and i try to watch as many Bruins games i can on NESN. However, I hope to one day own my beloved favorite baseball team, the Boston Red Sox. My gf says i am obsessed with the Sox and she says I care "too much" about it. Too much! Too much! My great grandfather was the biggest Red Sox fan ever, and I am just trying to carry on the family tradition. Owning the Red Sox has been a life-long dream of mine and I know my great grandfaher would be happy looking at me from heaven. I knew he was celebrating in heaven when the Red Sox won the 2004 World Series. He had never seen them win one when he was alive, but he was cheering with every pitch from the sky. I don't want to seem to emotional, but I felt like he was next to me, sitting in his chair, watching it with me, and we were celebrating together.
