You know it's amazing how much sports can become part of your life. The sense of being part of something that's bigger than you, the joy when you win, even the agony of defeat. I think it makes you a better person. If you play, teamwork and new friends are made. If you don't, the connection of cheering for the same team can be very powerful (anytime that I meet a Flames fan like I am I feel like I've known them my whole life and have been best friends since forever, even if we just met - in part that dervies from where I grew up, stupid Leafs, stupid Habs, and even haha stupid Oilers). It can take your mind off the trying things in life, and even put the more important things into perspective.

I was hoping for Ottawa to win before, now I'll be cheering for them

GO SENS GO
