grateful football five
by devonsp
1. it’s violent and confusing but at least it’s something americans do together, as a team, emphasis not on the individual
2. it’s a way of watching tv without totally tuning out (especially if you watch with danny schmidt and aren’t afraid to ask questions)
3. you can hear the longhorns stadium from our house
4. it’s something (besides the weather) to talk about with austin strangers
5. i am weirdly moved when football teams do that thing when they crouch at the entrance, arms around each other, legs deeply bent, and strongly sway back and forth. i also like the idea of a player’s ‘intangibles.’
