I have loved football as an almost mythic game since I was in the fourth grade. To me, the game wasn't even grounded in reality. The uniform turned you into a warrior. Being on a team, the mythology of physical combat, the struggle against the elements, the narrative of the game. ↗

But it turns out that people who are grounded and secure don't change much under stress. That's what being grounded means. ↗
