This week I was wondering what to write about and a friend asked if I had written about football yet. Of course! I love football. I love, love, love, love watching football. And despite what my husband will tell you, it’s not just the tight ends. (Although they’re allllll tight ends…). I love a good, clean, well-fought game of football. I love the strategy of football, the aggression of football, and the passion of the coaches and players. For me, the only thing good about summer coming to an end is that football season is starting up. Oh, and October – the month of my birth, but we’ll get to that on a different post.
Last month I wrote about my little camper (Fun With My Beaver) and all the fun we have with it, so this month I thought about having a little fun with football.
Thinking about what to write, I wondered, “What is the most important thing about football?” The strength and agility of the running back? The surety of the hands of the receiver? The necessity of the tight end to be a blocker and a receiver? And then it came to me – it’s the thing that all players covet. The catalyst that turns players into primal beasts protecting and fighting for it.
It’s… the ball.
Balls are important in any sport or activity, and we could probably talk for hours about how knitting takes balls, or how some guys play with smaller balls, or how in billiards you’re actually expected to break another guys balls… but this post is about football.
Not only is football a fantastic sport, but the fun thing about football is it’s just like talking about a guy’s junk. Think about it, in football:
- They keep their balls in a sack.
- They get distressed if one is missing.
- They constantly check their balls.
- Everyone gets upset if they’re not firm enough.
- They’re hard to handle when they get too cold.
- Even though they’re being played with they’re still protected
- They try to keep other guys from grabbing their balls.
- They wear gloves when they’re expected to touch another guy’s balls.

This week I think my little bit of inspiration and encouragement to you, my reader, is to get outside. It’s Fall – the time for football and crisp autumn air. Get a group of friends together and play a little football. Oh, and please remember, a gentleman always asks permission before playing with another guy’s balls.
