Yes, we're all slackers. So sue.

Ok, I have a bone to pick with no one in particular. I just want to vent and I don't want to vent on the family blog because of all the much more serious stuff being discussed there. So I went to Jacob's intramural soccer game last night to be the team cheerleader. Me a cheerleader. Funny, I know. Anyway, his smaller team was playing a very large team (number of people, not body size) of all freshmen. And honestly, I could have clobbered a few of them. They were rude and stupid and just plain obnoxious. I have been told that I don't just feel this way when the opposing team is full of freshmen, though I do think that made matters worse. I just don't have good sportsmanship and tend to have hateful feelings toward the other teams pretty much always. I know that this is bad, but I'm still not sure why I do this. Most of the time, I feel that I am a nice, kind person and pretty ok with people I meet. It's rare (I feel at least) for me to not like someone when I just met them. But for every intramural game that Jacob plays, I just can't stand the other team. I have a suspicion that my lack of control in this area comes from never playing sports myself, so I haven't had much experience with actually competitive things. Anyway, to hopefully spark a discussion, I would love input of suggestions for what I can do to stop hating everyone that plays against my husband in a sport. And I've tried singing a hymn, so don't suggest that. :-P
