Sports fans dream of days where everything is hand delivered to you on a silver platter and we can just sit back and enjoy all that is offered. This past Sunday was just that case for me.
The Major League baseball teams that I root for (the Orioles) and the one that I follow in the other league and work for (the Nationals) were playing each other on beautiful MASN HD. This was rain delayed and didn't start until 3:00 instead of the scheduled 1:30. My Penguins were playing on NBC in HD trying to eliminate the Flyers. Finally, the Celtics face a do or die game #7 on ABC and, you guessed it, in HD.
So, all these options. All these wonderful beautiful events to watch. How does one chose? I tried flipping for awhile but you don't get to really enjoy any one of these fully since you are trying to watch three instead. Here I was, the world handing everything to me and I was overwhelmed and unable to handle all that I thought I wanted.
What does one do? I did what I thought was best. I got in the car and limited my options to the radio and listened to the O's/Nats. When handed everything I decided to interact with sports like my great grandfather did. I got home in time to see the end of the Celtics game when everything else was done.
Then it was done. Nothing to watch. I was almost relieved.
