Old Guys Playing Sports

The last couple weeks have been pretty solid for old guys playing sports.  That makes me happy :)

In high school, any guy younger than me wasn't getting a lot of respect from me, simply based on age (90% of the time).  That approach lingered in college and eventually faded away by my late 20s, but solidified itself in a different form in my 30s.  It moved over to sports, and while I might have respect for athletes younger than me, the only guys that can qualify as "my guys" have to be older than me.  If you're my guy, I'm passionately rooting for you, tuning in to watch you play, setting the DVR to watch games I missed and even stay up really late or wake really early to watch if they're playing overseas.

Two weeks ago my guy T Woods made the cut for the first time since 2015. 

And then my guy R Federer won the Australian Open for his 20th Grand Slam title.

And then my guy T Brady played in his 8th Super Bowl and threw for more passing yards than any QB in history.

Respect!
