In praise of - American Football.

In February, I watched my first Superbowl.

The New York Giants and the New England Patriots battled it out in a nervy game, which I stayed up late to watch from the comfort of my living room.

I flirted with American football for months after that, but finally became a proper fan on a recent break in Istanbul, where I found myself watching games screened on American sports channels. By the time I returned from holiday, I had caught the NFL bug.
