I’ve mentioned to Earl on a couple of occasions over the past month or two that I would like to play football with some other like minded guys sometime. I’ve mentioned that we need to go to a bigger city and get on a gay football team or something and just hang out and have some fun.
As a youngster I was always terrified of the sport, because after all, I was a ‘band fag’ and they don’t do sports. Finally, twenty-five years later, I feel secure enough with myself that I could play in a football game and actually know what’s going on and maybe get a little bit dirty and banged up blocking people. Earl says he throws a mean football and I’m anxious to have him show me his technique this spring.
I never would have imagined myself on a football field actually playing the game. Now I can’t wait for the opportunity!
Isn’t life funny that way… I’ve become a total jock myself. Running a 5k and even joining a soccer league. Who would have thought… I expect your Earl to snap photos of you playing football. He does know how to take photos right? Just saying!
