Summer may be fading but the pain is eased for me by one of my favorite things, football season! Notre Dame, my alma mater, made it to the national championship last year. The bad news was that we got absolutely spanked. But it is a new season and I’m looking forward to catching the games each Saturday.
Last year Eko learned that once a week I turn into a nut (ok, more of a nut) and jump around the apartment or smack my hand against my head or do any number of silly things. He thinks I’m crazy, but he gets a total kick out of it. When I jump around, so does he, and when I give an exasperated sigh Eko will lick my face for encouragement. This year we’re ready for another exciting season of ups and downs.
We watch the games closely
See the big play coming
See the big play happening
Sometimes covering my eyes because I can’t take it
Sometimes grimacing at a bad call from the referee
Sometimes needing a hug
But always cheering with reckless abandon! Or in Eko’s case, looking down my mouth to see why I’m yelling at the TV
Am I crazy? You bet. Luckily my dog is ok with that!
Adorable! My pooch ignores the TV most of the time, but is crazy about a particular Scottish historian who does BBC documentaries over here in the UK. I guess the ladies do love an accent after all!
Americans loving foreign accents is a cross-species condition I guess!
Hahahahhaha – love it!
I love Eko’s face & agree with Genevieve, I think Eko’s just not as into the game as you are Will. But he’s in with being with you!
I’m not into football. Tennis is my game. And swimming. But you guys crack me up. Hope you have a winning season!
You guys kill me.
