Flyers

     One of my favorite things to do after a long day of school, work, and/or going to the gym is relaxing and watching the Philadelphia Flyers. I have been watching them for as long as I remember, and I am a die hard fan. My father got me into watching them when I was a toddler, and I've been watching them since. Usually, if he stays awake til game time, I watch the games with my dad. Were both busy people and we don't get a lot of time together, so enjoying the game together is always a good time to bond.
     I love watching hockey, probably more than any other sport. It is such a fast paced and rough sport. Another thing I appreciate about it, is the lack of breaks and commercials. I love watching an intense football gameas much as any other testerone filled man, but I think we can all agree it goes by way too slow. I watch the Flyers so much, that I feel a bond with all their players. I feel as if there my friends, and when they score, I cheer them on, as if one of my buddies just scored in a pick up game at a nearby playground.
     I just got done watching tonights Flyers game. It was dissapointing to say the least. They did come back from a three goal deficet, then take the lead, all just to blow it in the end, and lose in a shut out. They played a decent game, but had some weak goaltending. They did fight though, which they always do. I guess that's just part of their charm.
GO FLY GUY!
