I have no where near the feels like i had many years ago.
I go back to the cup winning season, and maybe even more so the 5 years previous to it, and i was consumed by the club and its fortunes. That just fades a bit over time though when real life starts to become more important because of various things. Kids, work, other forms of entertainment/whatever to eat up disposable dollars...etc.
Just my opinion and maybe I'm way off on that, but have had this convo with some of the guys i was running with back in those days and all feel the same way.
Its pretty cool to see the younger ones both on this site and around town still have that level of passion/fanaticism though. |
I think it's natural.
As you get older you get more and more perspective in life. And as much as sports is fun, it isn't the same as the health of your kids, your career, beating cancer.
Doesn't mean you don't care. But the passion changes.
