I have never been a professional organized sports person. I played soccer in middle school, baseball in elementary school, but have never gone out of my way to watch any. If there was soccer, hockey, or baseball on tv and I could find nothing else I would watch.

I went to all of my daughter’s soccer games while she was in AYSO, and most of her home games when she played varsity.

Lately though I have really been into the PWHL (women’s hockey league). It just started its second season. There are only 6 teams currently. None of them are near me (I am in NM), none are near where I have lived. No one I know watches, the person who turned me onto it follows the Boston Fleet, which is kind of where I am settling.
