Sports have become a distraction for everything going on in the world. Moderation is okay, but the people who paint their faces and beer bellies to get on TV are crazy. When I used to work, I had to restrain myself when people started talking about the game. It's just so pointless to me. A few Steelers came into the one store I used to work at and I had NO idea who they were. It was probably a relief for them though. I doubt they can go many places without being bothered.
Sports like tonight helped me get away with some problems and what is going on in the world, if you get too caught up in that and too depressed then you become obsessed with it and forget about some fun in life, so balance is the KEY on both of the things there! Remember Jesus says the Kingdom of heaven is within us, so heaven can be on Earth too, if you let it!!! Got to be positive alot and have some fun! Thats a must. Time for thinking and time for fun, balance and options.


BTW some have such big egos it hurts them when you don't know who they are, one idiot who played for the Skins here (No names) came into a porno store my friend worked and and was upset in a way my friend did not know nor care who he was, said he was alright but a little bit of a clown in that way. The coach of my fave team (The SPURS) said something that made me think alot, he said life is short might as well have some fun! He also said when a player fouled he was really down on himself and was very depressed, he said if thats the worst thing that is going to happen to him in life then he is going to have a GREAT LIFE! Have to see it that way too, it's not really that serious in life. You can play and hurt some, but don't let the joy or the hurt take over your life.

In Sanskrit, tulsi means literally "the incomparable one" and has been revered since ancient times. Tulsi, the holy basil, is said to have grown at the site of Christ’s crucifixion and is associated with St. Basil’s feast.
