I just have to write a quick post about this. It's Sunday night here in Germany, and I'm doing my usual, glancing at the live NFL scoreboard online, as I go about my business. This always makes me a bit sad, because I LOVE American Football, and not being able to watch live games is one of the hardest things for me! See, even though I'm a girl, and a girly girl at that, I've been hooked on the sport as long as I can remember. I think it comes from being born in Cleveland, Ohio (ergo, Cleveland Browns!). Everyone from Cleveland, old or young, male or female, is a football fan. I've heard it comes from drinking the water there...
Actually, I do have recourse to live football - the Armed Forces Network, which is the US army in Europe's radio station, broadcasts the games on AM 870. Unfortunately, the reception isn't very good, and also the time difference is a problem. Games start at either 13:00 or 16:00 eastern time, which is 19:00 and 22:00, respectively. The earlier games are ok, but the later games can go till 02:00. If I stay up and listen, then I'm tired and grumpy at work the next day - not good.
Aargh, and right now, it's Baltimore Ravens 16, Cleveland Browns 3! Yikes, it's the final score! Waaaaaahhhh! Ok, there's always next week...
