Wasn't interested...
Feb. 1st, 2004 07:46 pmNo Super Bowl for me...
patgreene is on her way home from
rmjwell's party, so the game must be over. I don't know who won, and don't really care... I spent the afternoon with yard work, cooking, chatting with
who_is_she and getting trounced in Mario Kart II by my seven-year-old son.
This is a departure from a decade ago and earlier... I used to follow sports teams and watch major events. This year I watched no NFL games all the way through, only one or two college games, no interest in basketball whatsoever (even though two of my schools are having excellent seasons) and spent far more time watching Little League than MLB. In the past five years... as an indicator, I've only watched one Super Bowl, and that was because the Raiders were local last year and Pat comes from the Tampa area. Before then, I don't think I missed one back to childhood.
It has been a lost shared-interest between Pat and I... she is still a fan, but has no one with whom to discuss prospects, controversies and off-season outlooks.
