As many of you know, today is a national holiday for most fans.
College Football Opening Day is upon us and we must take part in the holiday festivities.
We should either be pigging out on junk food and drinking beers (or soft drinks for the under-age fans) while watching the glorious game we call football on the big screen or just do the even more traditional festivity and go to the stadium of your favorite team and tailgate with your buddies; grilling hot dogs and burgers, drinking a tall, cold beer while conversing about our predictions for our team and the season.
Fans across America mark their calenders for the first weekend of college football and we treat it with such reverence that anybody who thinks we're crazy about our team and should "have a life" needs to understand this:
Sports in general gives us an escape from our stressful lives and makes us believe that we
are a part of the team we root for every weekend.
Without theses crazy fans, sports would be boring.
So everybody who is a college football fan, or any sports fan for that matter, here is my message to you:
Represent your favorite team to the fullest. Don't let anybody tell you to calm down whenever your team makes an amazing play or a foolish one. Most importantly, have fun with whomever you watch the games with. These are the moments where fanhood is most appreciated and celebrated.
