Long weekend and Grand Finals

Labour day is Monday so I'm enjoying my first paid holiday in my grown up job. It's a huge weekend in sport since there are two Grand Finals for the footy this weekend, with AFL (Australian Football League) today and NRL (National Rugby League) tomorrow. I mostly watch the NRL, since it is the more popular sport in New South Wales and AFL seems to be bigger in Victoria. Another reason I kinda prefer NRL is because it's more like American football and just makes sense to me: good old-fashioned dudes crashing into each other. AFL involves too much running, and they do this weird move where they give each other boosts WAY up into the air:
Anyways I'll probably skip the AFL final and go hang out with Hayden's sister who has no interest in it either, and save my energy for tomorrow when the Canterbury Bulldogs play the Melbourne Storm in Sydney. It should be a good game, and although I really like watching Billy Slater play during the regular season (he plays for the Storm), I still have to support Sydney and say Go The Bulldogs!
