Sports and Life

I missed American idol yesterday because I watched the sonics game. Although we lost, I still believe in sonics and I hope they can win game 6 @ home. I really want Sonics to win... I was so down yesterday. It's funny how we can get so emotionally involved with sports. Well sports is some sort of entertainment... but you can get very sad when your favorite team lost or you can be so psyched when they win, eventhough you dont really "know" them hehe... And what's in it for you when they win? For some people, maybe they bet, so they want them to win for money. For me personally, sometimes I look up to them, I see them as an idol and I want them to win because it sort of gives me an encouragement. They win a game and beat the other team, well that gives me encouragement to do well in life. You have to beat those obstacles and reach for your goal. I know it's a bit corny haha... I used to like David beckham a lot and I am so amazed with his determination in reaching what he wants. After the world cup incident with Argentina, he was boo-ed wherever he played and he did not give up, he gave all his best to his fans although his fans mocked him. Finally, he's able to prove to the fans that he's still the best (sort of haha). It is ok if you messed up once in a while. Nobody is perfect anyway. You just have to get back on your feet and fix that problem. You have to prove to the world that you're capable of being the best.

Sports/games really reflects life. You have to beat your opponents to win (you'll have to face challenges in order to get what you want in life); Sometimes you lose, and sometimes you win (in life, you don't always get what you want, sometimes you're up, sometimes you're down); You need to communicate with your teammate/coach in order to win (you need to communicate with your parents/friends/co-worker/spouse); You need fans to support you (you need your friends and family to support you in what u do), etc etc...
