Suddenly A Basketball Fan

Tweet

I don't watch a whole lot of sports on television. I used to be a big hockey fan but the Toronto team has been quite the disappointment in the last couple of decades. I will watch a Leaf game if there is nothing else on (but there usually is, like Ghost Adventures or my taped shows from earlier in the week). So I really only watch during the playoffs. This happened last fall with the Toronto Blue Jays baseball team. They made it to the finals and I was desperate to find a television since my husband had cancelled the sports channels as a money saving effort. We found ourselves in the local sports bar one afternoon. After that I went online and got the sports channels back. Well, not all of them, but the ones I thought I would need. Now along come the Toronto Raptors basketball team, now in the second round of the playoffs. Some of the games have been on the sports channel I got back, some have been on a channel we never had and still don't. Tonight's game was on the channel we have, Friday's game will be on the "other" channel. I may be looking for a sports bar again on Friday night. Last week was the first time I have EVER watched a basketball game on television. (I watched my kids play on school teams). So I guess I'm not really a basketball fan, or a baseball fan, more like a Toronto sports fan. When it gets exciting, I want in. Especially when it's not just Toronto that's being represented but the whole country. I am a proud Canadian. [/b][/i]We The North! Go Raptors Go![b][i]
