Sports Gone Wild

Today begins a week-end of epic sports proportion. This morning, the kiddos were off to Sport's Day. Much deliberation on the subject of what to wear and fix the hair.  It was decided to root for the home team and go with S.U. Orange and Blue.  Tee shirt out, bows crafted and off to school.
Tonight, it's off to the high school for Senior Night and recognition of Chandler Benson reaching the 1000 point milestone on Tuesday. Unfortunately, Bailee will be at her Dad's as she is one of Chandler's faithfuls.....she calls him , "Chandelier!".......after all he does hang from the rim!  Coincidentally, his Mom said she calls him that too....♥

Tomorrow, over 34K will fill the Dome in Syracuse to cheer on the Syracuse Orangemen. A record crowd (and ESPN) will be in the house to watch the ACC match up of the season as the Orangemen squeeze the Duke Blue Devils to a loss.

Sunday will entail food prep and munching followed by commercial watching and Super Bow XLVIII right here in the northeast under the stars.  That's right, outside where football was intended to be played. The amazing Seattle Seahawks took me to within single digits of winning this year's fantasy football league.  I was able to draft Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch AND their defense...woo hoo!!!! They are the team to beat.  Needless to say I have never been a Manning fan.. except for James that is! I'm so glad Peyton has recuperated, is healthy and is going down!

Having a brain that has lived for over 6 decades, I am hoping that it stays sharp throughout the week-end and remembers it's focus.  Tonight we root for the MORAVIA Blue Devils in Blue and white. Tomorrow we switch gears and root against the Blue Devils in Blue and white and for the folks in Orange and blue. Then Sunday, we root against the men in Orange and Blue and root for the guys in Blue and Green.

This all may be more than I can handle but what a way to go:-)
