I woke up on a late February weekend and flipped on the television to what should have been a sight for sore eyes.
It was a college lacrosse report, a pre-game show for a big early-season match-up that was about to air.
I’m willing to admit that big games sometimes derail my weekends. I stop doing errands or put off chores or re-arrange days in order to watch the contests — both in the men’s and women’s game — that pique my interest.
But this time, nothing. As much as I love lacrosse and am anxious to see my first games of the season, I took a quick look and moved on with my day.
