American Football in Turkey

My hubby had to go on a business trip to Turkey and emailed this hilarious story he read while flying their airline (which, BTW, he highly does NOT recommend - he's flown some scary airlines and places, but even this one had him concerned for his well-being). Enjoy!

First and foremost, we need to point out that for us, since we are used to watching sports teams in just t-shirts and shorts, watching a live game, that we would normally see in Hollywood movies, was rather “exhausting.” Playing a ball game with all this gear seems really difficult. The ball itself is rather funny; it’s almost impossible to hold it, let alone throw it. For these reasons, the players have kept themselves busy trying to carry that ellipsoid.


"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
