Football!

I love football season. It's not quite the same here in the south as it is back in Michigan. There is no slight chill to the air, No sweatshirts...but there is excitement. Most of my favorite teams lost this weekend. Only my Alma Mater pulled it out for a win. I haven't seen Central play this year and I won't...unless they make it to some obscure bowl game that is televised here in Jacksonville. Needless to say, I check the scoreboards regularly to see how the "Chips" are doing.

I grew up loving football. My dad was a high school band director which meant that every Friday night he was at the games. I usually went along and was babysat by the rowdies in the band who thought it was funny to teach me raunchy cheers. From there I moved on to being part of my own high school marching band and the traditions grew....and then college...I can't even begin to tell you how much fun game day was at CMU. Good times.....good times......

Funny how my love of music has brought me close to my love of football. ♥
