I have been a
sports fan for most of my life but I really didn’t get into it until my
freshman year of high school. Watching sports on TV is something I feel like I always
have to be part of because you never know what is going to happen, even though
some passionate fans show extra confidence like, “Oh, we are going to blow you
guys out of the water!!” As legendary NFL coach Herm Edwards says, “You play to
win the game.”
As far as my teams go, it really
sounds like I am all over the place with the teams I support and a couple teams
I happen to be a fan of may shock everyone. For the NFL, I support the Broncos
because one of my favorite college athletes of all time, Tim Tebow, was drafted
by them, even though he never had much success at all as an NFL quarterback.
For baseball, of course I support the Nationals because of my family and it
being a local team, but my main team I follow is the Tampa Bay Rays because I
love almost everything Tampa Bay because it is practically my second home from
going on vacation there many times to visit family and will eventually be my
actual home after college. For hockey, I am of course a diehard fan of the
defending cup champion Capitals, but when they aren’t playing the Tampa Bay
Lightning, I’ll follow them too. Last year’s Eastern Conference Final was an
interesting one when the Caps played the Lightning because no matter what the
result was, I was going to be happy either way, but of course, I wanted the
Caps to win. I’m not really much of an NBA fan but I follow the Wizards because
of my internship and I’ll get into that a little bit later. For college
football, I support University of Florida and college basketball, I follow
quite a few teams like of course, our George Mason Patriots, the Florida
Gators, a little ACC Basketball and Georgetown.
