Concerning Sports...

Well, as you all know, it is the season for Football.
I don't get Football. It makes no sense to me. All these cocky guys are fighting for...a pig bladder?? Really?? The only time I willingly went to a football game was for the band music and I saw my neighbor, who played quarter back I think, get his back stomped on by one of his own team members. My friend had to keep me from running out to the field and mauling that jerk football player!
Needless to say, my neighbor still has back issues to this day and that was the last time I went to a football game....for the player's sakes.
The other night though, I almost stopped in at a football game happening in town. As I was driving by the field in the late evening, this wonderful smell wafted through my pickup window and almost made my sleepy eyes roll to the back of my head.... HOOOOT DOOOOGSSSSSS
I LUV hot dogs. Put a little cheese or some ketchup on those boogers and I will eat them all day long!
Anyway....back to sports.
I don't mind playing baseball or soccer for fun, though I am terrible at soccer. But the sports that I REALLY get into are....can you guess?
*DRUM ROLL*
Equine Sports
'Equine' meaning Horse.... I totally dig horse sports.
My favorites being: Eventing & Cross country (in English Style riding...read more HERE), and any Western Style sports.... Pole Bending and Barrel Racing are getting a little old though. I would like to see more cross country in the Western Riding Sports!
And I am sorry....who said that Horse Sports aren't really sports?
You have your team of horse and rider....and they aren't exactly pleasure riding either! But both love it!

Western Riding

Yep. Horse sports are the bomb, and they make a LOT MORE SENSE than a big group of guys kicking a pig bladder all over a field.
You think your tough cause you kick a ball how ever many yards? Try riding a horse. It's a whole 'nother ball game....
