The Philadelphia Phillies are my favorite Major League baseball team. When I was 15 I moved with my parents to the Philadelphia area and we lived there for less than 2 years. During those two years I went from never watching professional baseball to become an avid fan.

When we lived there my father and I would go to some of the baseball games. Now that I am older and do not live near any stadiums my father and I still watch Major League Baseball together on direct tv packages premier.

I am so stoked that my beloved Phillies are still in the playoffs with a great chance to possible go to the World Series. If my Phillies go the World Series I will have to change my work schedule around so that I can I can see all the games.

The San Francisco Giants are looking real good, but if my Phillies can beat them then I will feel real confident in their ability to go all the way and win the World Series. The Phillies are unified as a team and there is not any bickering among teammates. They support each other and I feel this is more important than skill. If my Phillies keep working together then they can easily win the World Series. I will be watching and cheering the entire way.

After getting my new Miracle Ear hearing aid, I've started doing the things I love again, like watching my favorite sports on TV. I've got to say, I'm so glad it's college football season again. I don't have a favorite team, but I do have ones that I like to keep an eye on, like UNC-Chapel Hill, State and Penn State. The Tar Heels have been especially fun to watch this season, especially since they've gone through some difficulties but still seem to be prospering. I have a good feeling that they are going to have a good season anyway.

I actually caught this great special on Penn State's head coach: Joe Paterno, the other day. He's 83 years old this year and he still doing what he loves. You really have to respect that, especially since he could retire right now with quite the nest egg. Shows he must really love what he does!

It's actually pretty inspiring, especially for someone like me, since I just retired. At first I thought that I'd end up doing less of the things I love, but it turns out Mr. Paterno has it right, life is totally what you make it, and these years are going to be great.

If you are asking me, World Cup soccer has all the excitement, drama, and intensity of a critical college or pro football game on a brisk all weekend in the United States. But this is different, here we are watching entire countries and crazy soccer fans get behind their team of choice and get them to win at all cost.

It's this intensity that will make me fire up the best satellite tv each and every day this month and try to live the World Cup. While I will be paying close attention to Team USA and the likes of Landon Donovan and Carlos Bocanegra, it's teams like Spain, Brazil, and France that are the favorites.

World Cup soccer fans are a different breed. Many have traveled to South Africa or the games, but millions of others will be gathered together to watch the action. While it is fun to watch the action on the field, watching the fans and hearing all the tales of what is going on off the field will be just as interesting.

I'm going to put Major League Baseball, college football recruiting, and pro football mini camps on hold for a month, and take in some intense World Cup soccer.
