I love football! My favorite team for many years has been the Dallas Cowboys, but I have to say my most exciting football year was the year I lived in North Carolina. That was the year the Carolina Panthers went to the Super Bowl. The attorney who owned the firm where I worked was a huge Panthers fan and went to every game that year, home or away, so I followed the team closely that year. He even paid for everyone in the office (it was a small office) to go see the playoff game between the Panthers and Dallas, and I must say, we had very good seats. That was quite a year, with the Panthers winning so many games with a field goal ( thank goodness for John Kasay). The Panthers lost the Super Bowl, but many records were made and broke during that game, making it truly one of the most interesting games in Super Bowl history.

There's a reason for that, I think. To be challenged to do with your feet what many people cannot do with their hands speaks to a profoundly human experience of being challenged and overcoming adversity.

Ahh the beautiful game. I follow the English, Italian and Spanish leagues mostly (because that's what's on TV here) as well as the all-Europe competitions. I have the luxury of not having a local side to support, so I just get to indiscriminately love good play. But that'll all change when Toronto gets an MLS team this year :)
