Hockey and Screamers

I go to my grandson's hockey games because I absolutely love to watch him play. I cheer for the team and it is hard to sit still while I watch because I get so excited. One time I had a front row seat with my camera taping as he made a goal and in my excitement the video is me screaming as the camera pans the ceiling. Ya, eye roll. Lately I find I'm a bit distracted by the screamer sitting nearby - SKATE! COME ON! WTH! GO! PASS! SKATE! OMG! Head in her hands, she can't believe what she is seeing. I mean really. To her, I say get up off your fat ass and see if you can stand on your skates for 30 seconds without falling. Because apparently you have no idea how freaking awesome these kids are. They put themselves out there every game and they go hard. And they don't always win but they are out there skating their butts off and I feel so proud of each and every one of them. To you the loud mouthed screamer? I'm sorry you find it necessary to 'inspire' them to do better with your 'encouraging' screaming. And I hope that after the game you are inspired to tell your child that you love to watch him/her play no matter who wins or looses.
