A childhood belief about sport

When I was growing up my grandfather loved to watch football on the television. I used to think that the players were really shaped the way they were. I didn't realize there was padding on their shoulders, so to me I thought they were monsterous people.

I also used to get freaked out everytime a television station would sign off for the evening at 11:00 or 11:30 p.m. Whenever they would start playing the national anthem, I would run into another room to get away from it. I have no idea why I was afraid.
