Then end of the football season for us in the north as the two best teams(well the two that survived) with clash for the ultimate trophy a cup(no now for the jock strap). Women rejoice at this day it means that men will no longer have the excuse that the game is on.
Now during the game like our cousins to the south preparation is made as far as food for the long night and a collection of guessed carefully pick by the quality of beer they bring gather to watch the first five minutes of the game then proceed to eat drink and re-live their childhood recounting the great games and plays of the playgrounds I would now re-tell one of the tales of playing at Beurling park but this blog has not the memory for it. Then we will all rush back to the game to watch the last five minutes truly the only time the two teams show any spunk and play as we once did all out for those five minutes. The game will climax in the last 10 seconds where hail Mary is not taking any ones name in vain and all will rest on the last play.
Afterwards we will talk about this game and it's value against the others and our wives and girlfriends will gather in the kitchen with their lists of work to do and plans for tea parties will run through their heads until the chant starts. At first low then rising to in tolerable noise, Monday night foot ball, playoffs the bowl games SUPER BOWL. Thank you to our American cousins for having a later season and keeping our Sundays and Monday nights for the true weekend warriors.
