I know, I know, the name of the blog is un[OFFICIAL]. But sometimes I'm offically things too. Like today. Official Jazz fan. That's just how I roll.
So in January I went to a Jazz game. It was AWESOME. Because I have some sweet connections, our seats were in the fourth row. Yep. FOURTH row. Right down there. We could practically smell the sweat. They played the Lakers (booo!), and they lost in overtime. It was a tragic night. But, it was also a good night, because it is the night I was converted to basketball fandom. More specifically Jazz fandom. I faithfully watch every game (unless I'm at work, in which case I have resorted to getting updates every quarter from ChaCha - it's not quite the same, but it's the best I can do considering the cirumstances). And I'm working on finding myself a Gordon Hayward jersey. Or Alec Burks would also be acceptable. Both would be ideal.
Just in case you don't understand the importance of my love of the Jazz, allow me to give you a little background info. I am kinda anti-sports. I don't like them. A good part of that is thanks to my lack of coordination and non-competitve spirit. PE was the bane of my existence. I tried soccer, I tried softball. I didn't like them. AT ALL. So for me to go from being completely anti-sports to being a Jazz fan, it's a big deal. SOME will tell you I only like the Jazz because it's an excuse to watch some hotties. That is a lie. Sure, I like watching the hotties. Who doesn't. But that IS NOT the reason. It's because (drum roll, please) I like basketball. Well, watching basketball. Jazz basketball. But whatever! It's progress!
Also, here's some good news! They won their game last night! And Gordon Hayward had an AMAZING game! So yay! Good night. Very good night.
I am [OFFICIALLY] a Jazz fan.
And for your viewing pleasure ...
