Go Pies

Last week I officially became a Collingwood supporter. (For the Americans, this is an Aussie Rules Football team and the Grand Final (Super Bowl) is in two weeks so football fever is on.)

There are several things which led this to happen.

1. Rob’s family would disown me if I supported any other team.

2. Rocca, one of the players, has a brother who played for Collingwood but is now playing for MY football team in the US (Philadelphia Eagles) as a punter.

3. They made the finals. And beat West Coast. And I was at the game.

4. I’m moving to Melbourne. And what fun is supporting a WA team (go Freo!!) when I’m living right next to the MCG?

5. I’ll be attending all the games next year anyways if I want to see my boyfriend on the weekends.

6. I wear a lot of black and white already.

7. Dale Thomas is cute.

8. Rob promised to join Facebook if I became a Collingwood supporter : ) Look for him on there this Saturday.



Also, congratulations to Elizabeth on her engagement to Justin!!
