In addition to getting to attend the Reds game on Sunday, the entire weekend was full of fun sporting events. Friday evening was the first Friday in weeks that Andrew didn't have to attend the high school football game. We enjoyed the Reds game on TV, but losing to the Pirates is NOT what we had hoped for. Saturday we watched ESPN's College Game Day live from South Bend. That afternoon we flipped back and forth between the Michigan/Rutgers game the UC/Oklahoma game. Neither game went the way I had hoped. That evening, we started watching the Reds game and were delighted when they jumped out to an early 9-0 lead. That made the eventual 13-12 loss all the more crushing! And of course, we watched OSU score with only a second left to defeat Notre Dame. This is literally the only time I ever root against the Buckeyes, but rooting against them I was!
After we had a blast Sunday afternoon, we were able to watch the Steelers game that night. We hadn't even realized that it was a Sunday night game so that was great planning! I didn't stay up for the entire game, but Andrew did and was very pleased the Steelers were victorious. The Bengals were also on national TV last night and won their first game of the season. The Reds beat Cleveland tonight, and that guarantees them a .500 record after losing 100 games last year. Their is still a mathematical chance to make the playoffs as a wild-card, but time is running out.
I'm so grateful I enjoy these sports and these moments. As I pointed out to Andrew on Saturday, life is pretty good if the biggest disagreement is which college football game to watch!
