What we love and how we love it

I went to the mecca of baseball today, Yankee Stadium.  America loves baseball.  They all come to celebrate, cheer, and watch it.  They devote their day to it.  They wear gear to show their allegiance to it.  How come it's O.K. to love sports, enthusiastically and not people  or God?  Perhaps, we put our love in places that are unworthy or self-serving.  O Lord, help us love YOU with all our heart and mind and strength and not other things, lesser things - even if they are good.  They are not You.
