I am already anticipating that moment where I'm standing on the goal line before the opening kickoff, both teams have been counted and all the officials are in their positions. Every Friday night I take an extra second to remind myself how lucky I am to be in the best place in the house -- with by best friends and colleagues knowing that my whistle will start what is the highlight of the week for many of us.
And then we start. And two hours later it's over much too soon (most of the time). And then the next highlight -- hitting a restaurant, watching the highlights from around the area, and reliving our game all over again.
