Page 3: I Miss My Teams

The New York Giants were on TV last Monday, and, although their undefeated season and string of away wins were snapped, I couldn't be budged from the game.  The loss was tough to digest, but I'd take the occasional rough loss in place of missing the game 10-12 times a season. 

And I can't watch the Rams.  They're just awful.  There's talk, even in this St. Louis-friendly place, of demoting them to Division III. 

And my Rangers; what is an out-of-college kid supposed to do?  A game on Versus is a straight up blessing—which just is just a sickening thought, considering their coverage. 

I can't really watch the Blues.  They're OK, and John Davidson, their GM, was just classic as a Rangers' TV announcer.  I try to attend four or five games a season (tickets are cheap).  But I just can't get my fill.

What's a fan to do? I don't buy that a die-hard fan only qualifies as one who watches every game, regardless of the situation.  Some of us just can't get to every game, or even most games.

But we want to love our teams.  We need to have them in our lives. 

I guess, no matter where I go—even if I end up living in St. Louis for the next five decades—my home will always be where my teams are.
