I love Tennessee football. We all do, this site is evidence. If we
didn't love UT football there would be no Volnation. That's why I love
this website, especially living in Alabama, it gives me some friends
to discuss my beloved vols with.
But why do I love football? Why do I get jitters 2 months before the
season? Why can I not control myself on a Saturday in the fall? Why
will spending all day in front of a tv watching the sport never get
old?
To me it seems that football appeals to us because it is one of the
very few constants in our life. Each year, football helps us to
overcome all sorts of hardships in our life. When we lose a family
member, a job, go through a breakup, divorce, or just feel that we've
hit rock bottom, we can be assured in one thing: football season is
just a few weeks away.
When tragedy comes, we know that the vols will still run through the
"T", we'll still here "It's football time in Tennessee!", and be
surrounded by 102,455 of our closest friends. And in all these
moments, nothing else matters. Nothing but the chills running down
your spine at the tradition of your favorite team.
Every day, even though I'm young, I age and get older. In this I
realize that I, as well as the world around me, is constantly
changing. Nothing will be the same for me as it was at one time. But
in realizing this I see that I can look forward to enjoying one thing
that will never change: when it's Football Time in Tennessee.
