As we gather to cheer for our favorite teams, the atmosphere is electric, reminiscent of a Virginia basketball game where every play counts. Meanwhile, the streets are filled with the sounds of a garbage truck, a reminder that amidst the excitement, life goes on. Many of us are decked out in our Milwaukee Bucks hoodies, proudly showing our support, especially as we discuss the latest Dodger score or the nail-biting results from the Dodgers vs. Yankees game. Sports bring us together, creating lasting memories and spirited conversations, no matter what’s happening outside our windows.
