LET THE GAMES BEGIN...and THE PASSION SPILL FORTH!!!


hello viewers it is moi....FFFandF among other things. come tell me who isn't excited about tonight? who isn't hoping that the pies get their wings clipped and come crashing down to the ground with a thud? who doesn't just love to stick it to the pies?...hee,hee...LOL.
 OMG it is back FINALLY...footy is here and i for one will be enjoying it in the comfort of my own home from my infamous position, none other than.... from the couch. however, let me go back one step. i hope to be enjoying this game coz sitting right next to me will be my emotional supporter, bless him, 50% FREO and 50% PORT, honestly that is the best i could do folks. i failed with my first born (sigh) even though i dressed him in a PORT beanie and bib, trapped him in his jolly jumper in front of the TV while i watched the game in comfort, played the POWER club song to him while he slept but alas...number one son couldn't care two hoots about the footy, a big BOO HOO to that, it just breaks my heart. 
     well number two came along and i thought why bother but he seemed to be a different story. he took to his mamas supporting with enthusiam. his first complete sentence was GO POWER!!! hee,hee...(well maybe a slight exaggeration) but he has definitely got footy fever like his mamma. but and there is a but which may disappoint some of you PORT purists, he does also barrack for FREO. how can this be so you may wonder? well he was born in WA and his dad supports FREO. it is just a dad thing for him which i am happy to support considering he is no longer part of our family.
     so FREO i am expecting, well no make that demanding that you win. if you don't i am gonna have to console one young fan who will be spitting the dummy and turning on the tears. personally i would much rather have a pleasant start to the weekend. so FOOTY GODS i am putting in a request for a FREO win so that my house may be peaceful and harmonious, add PORT too and we will be doubly happy.
     indeed viewers it is back to footy season and footy writing. i for one continue to be excited by the prospect of our club. a young, talented side who are at the beginning of building the new PORT dynasty...OMG am i allowed to say that? i don't care, i just will because what excited me about last season was the feeling that things were going to change and that a transformation was indeed taking place. have faith fellow supporters and add a dose of reality to that too while i am at it. i am definitely passionate but i am also a realist. this is a team in the making folks. last season was a huge leap forward. this season the weight of expectation will be heavy but only will become a burden if the team and supporters let it. and who isn't excited about adelaide oval ?OMG i will leave that one for round two...
     so here is to the 2014 season!!! may your team do well but finish below mine, hee,hee. i will watch with interest to see how FREO have pulled up from their lack lustre (OUCH) grandfinal appearance but hope for a win to bring a smile to number two's face and of course to my WA mates. i will also be interested to see what kind of shape the pies are in, apparently it is a young side but i cannot attest to that...so i better start doing some homework.
love FFFFXXX
PS i am also re-launching the weekly guest tipster...so if you are keen, drop me a line in the comments section and i will get back to you. for round one i will kick off with FREO by 29, SWANS, SUNS, PORT, CATS, ROOS, HAWTHORN, SAINTS and WEST COAST.
