Is it possible that, in some small way, our passion for sports is also a means of our sanctification? This must be the case. Enjoy March Madness. Root. Spend time with family and friends. Talk during the games, build relationships. Use the whole "event" as an opportunity to share life together--much the way friends build bonds while shooting a round of golf.
Just don't let sports be your first love. Make sure your kids know you love Jesus more than your team. Make sure they know you love the body of Christ, the church, more than you love those players. And think twice before becoming a Portland Trailblazers fan. Seriously.
