As we sit on the eve of Christmas Eve and come ever closer to the close of 2008 and the entrance of 2009, it’s time to look back at the year that was…or is it?

Maybe this is a time where we put sports aside for 2 days and enjoy the family and friends that surround us.  A time where the television or sports seems to be the furthest thing on people’s minds.  A time where family comes together to cook a big Christmas dinner, where kids wake up on Christmas morning to find the gifts they “always wanted” under the tree and a time where we all realize how important family is to all each and every one of us, sports fan or not. 

So as you spend time with your families this Christmas, remember what’s really important and put aside your love for whatever team you plan on watching or rooting for and enjoy being with the people that mean the most to you during this holiday season.  I know, for me personally, I can’t wait to spend my Christmas with two amazing families, both of which I’m spending the holidays with for the first time and I couldn’t be more excited. 

I know there are bowl games coming up, I know there’s the Super Bowl to look forward to at the end of January, but enjoy the holiday season and all it’s meant for, whatever that is to you.  Sports will always be here and we’ll always be here to give you our opinion, but for the next few days, enjoy the people you have around you because who knows when you’ll get to have this much fun again. 

Merry Christmas to you and your families and here’s to a very prosperous 2009. 

Happy Holidays!
