I was born and grew up in Brooklyn, so of course I was a Dodgers fan (still am) and a Giants football fan (again, still am). My two sons came along and joined me in the excitement of watching Giants football, though to tell the truth, my older son, born in Boston, also has a strong attachment to the Patriots. Super Bowl XLII was something of a challenge for him but not for the rest of the family. When my sons went off on their own, Sunday afternoons and occasional Monday nights were “holy times,” with me watching the games by myself, praying, twisting and turning with.
