I am very facinated by the raw expressions and reactions true sports fans have when they watch thier favorite team. I often wonder if some non die hard fans fake
thier vervor to fit into the group. The true fan would be so wrapped up in watching the game he/she might not even notice. I wish I could capture that enthusiasm and put all that energy into a bottle. There is something so raw and authentic about it. The are so atuned to every play by play as if they were actually playing the game. I have seen it bring strangers together in remote countries across multi-cultural boundaries. The essence of it can be shared around the world. I think that’s why I love the Olymipcs so much. The thought of a athlete who trains non-professionally (in some cases) just for one brief defining moment. Was all the sacrifice worth it in the end. How would this athlete be able to handle the outcome long term? There’s so much we can learn from eachother.
