Love Song

Dear Sports Fans,
I wanted to let you all know of my decision to do what everyone has been telling me to do; I am going to go into the family business, which is of course, sports. The overriding reason why I have made this change? I love, have always loved and will forever love athletic competition. The spirit of athletic achievement has imbued our world with an incessant call to succeed. People, by in large, are inspired by athletes. For every Pac Man Jones, there are ten Warrick Dunn's, who runs a charity program called Homes for the Holidays where 5 single mother families are selected every year and bestowed with the first house they will ever own. But you will never hear this story. No, you will hear about Donte Stallworth, who just was indicted on vehicular manslaughter charges after hitting someone crossing the street illegally. But Stallworth had alcohol in his system. This is not what inspires people. I am in love with sports and I see a large gaping hole where I feel my father used to be. The industry is a shark infested water, badly in need of some actual genuine but also opportunisitc manuevering. The trick is to combine idealisim, practicality and self interest, hit all the bases I always say. I have decided to write what is on my mind regarding sports because, well, girls really aren't that important to me right now. I am learning Chinese, reading three books a week, planning a sports business, following all the things I follow, working out and this may sound callous, but why would I trade that to be with some sorority girl who can't construct a sentence without using the word like or talking about Gossip Girl? It is not worth it. Maybe, and this is what my friends tell me and I believe, I just have to wait to get out of Tucson because I am just not going to meet anyone I want to meet out here. I am okay with that. I enjoy having girls as friends very much. I do require more frompeople I seek to date and I just do not think it is a smart usage of time to try and fit a square peg in a round hole. So, sports are the opiate of the masses and I am as addicted as anyone. The Dodgers, Chelsea FC, UA sports, I have my teams, I have my plan, I have the background, I just need this stupid degree from UA in Creative Writing and then the world can be my oyster. I love sports, boy do I love sports.
