Hook Em’ Horns

This is about college football. I know not all of you care, but you know what? I do.

Today was both the Cotton Bowl and the Rose Bowl, and I don’t think I have ever had so much fun watching football.

First, Texas A&M played University of Tennessee, and we lost horribly (38 to 7) even though favored to win. We scored a touchdown in the last 6 minutes or so, and during that time, I was in the fetal position on the couch wondering why we are so horrible. When we scored a touchdown, I not only woke up John, but I also fell flat on my face. Needless to say, I was estatic.

Then, here comes the Rose Bowl with Michigan and Texas. BEST FREAKIN’ GAME EVER. I was very happy. BEST GAME EVER. I don’t think I have been this happy in my life. Seriously. Texas won (37-36) even though we were losing the last 2 seconds of the game. Hook ‘em.

I knew I was a longhorn at heart, and today reconfirmed why. (Well, not entirely, but you get the picture.)

As I think about this, I know my dad would be proud of me. He always used to like football ALOT, and I never used to understand why. I do now. Too bad his team lost (bama to minnesota). That’s okay though. There’s always another year.

awww. :)
