Crazy about the Cards
November 11, 2004Louisville is absolutely bonkers about U of L athletics. Like about half the office went home early yesterday because they had to get ready for the Cardinals vs. TCU. Thank God the Cards handily beat the Horned Frogs, or there would have been a lot of sad people in town today.
It’s definitely not just football–in fact if anything basketball is more popular. It’s been pretty rare apparently that the Cards have had such great football and basketball teams in the same season. I wouldn’t know, as I’m not that big a fan.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy college athletics. There’s nothing quite so satisfying as watching a good hit that you can hear way up in the bleachers. But I don’t really feel the need to be so worked up about a game.
I guess I’m gonna have to learn though, seeing as how I’m living out here now.
