Alone in the Car: Your Team's Colors

Who is your favorite team? Is it a professional one, or maybe a college team, the local school district, one where you sit in the cheap seats? Maybe it's something else. You ran for Race for the Cure, volunteered for Special Olympics, or got in the water for Swim for Diabetes.

Many of us have clothing and accessory items that remind us of our favorite teams. T shirts are my number one choice for showing my team spirit. I can't stop with one either. Most teams have several colors, ergo several T shirts. But you may pick something else. Maybe long ago you decided that you would collect mugs, pins, autographed posters or photographs. Or perhaps you bought one mug and hence every birthday after that, an instant collection was born. And you didn't even have to say a thing or didn't even think to say anything. Everybody else thought about organizing the collection for you.

You may have several teams you favor and depending on the time of year, etc. you may chose to wear the appropriate piece of clothing that goes with that sport's season. Then of course you have the hat that has been worn so much and fits so well, that it may be worn almost all year round.

I am just about ready to change the artificial flowers in the vase at my office. Why does this connect with team colors? Well, the colors of the flowers represent one of my favorite teams. The season for this team could be year round but it really gets a kick off just about now. I hope everyone has chosen this as one of their favorite teams too. Some true great ones have played at different positions. The colors: Red, White, and Blue.
