BlazerCon

#BlazerCon starts tonight.  It is a a massive undertaking and has some amazing programming.  Soccer has meant a lot to me through my life.  As a kid growing up in London I fell in love with the game and with Arsenal.  Arsenal is still the team I love the most in any sport.  I spent my teens n North America when soccer was not as popular as it is now.  I still loved playing and went to Toronto Biizzard Games and went to a Soccer Bowl! When I moved back to England I was able to re-connect with Arsenal during the Boring Boring Arsenal era-  I still loved it. 

Now as a grown up I have kids who play and love the game. That thrills me.  All of the EPL coverage on television has made soccer the most watched sport in our home.  Arsenal plays entertaining football and I love being maddened by them as well.

The @meninblazers podcast is very special to me.  Rog and Davo were kids in England the same time I was.  When they talk about TV & Music in England it brings me back.  They always sounded like two friends.  I have had the pleasure of meeting them a few times,  they are lovely blokes.  I hope I do not come off as too stalkery.  I have made friends on Twitter and in IRL through the Pod.  It means a lot to me.
