I am a
huge NFL football fan. My friends and family do not call the house on Sundays or on Monday nights. Some weeks, Thursday nights are off limits. I allow myself this obsession because I:
- do not watch soap operas
- do not watch afternoon talk shows
- do not watch reality tv shows
If you calculate all the hours that I've spent watching grown men run around grassy fields, I should be a football expert. Sadly, I am not. My son-in-law tried several years ago to teach me how to play John Madden's video game. I was a complete dunce! It's the excitement that I crave and the chance that the next play will be one for the highlight reel like Dallas Clark catching Peyton Manning's throw today in the end zone - with one hand! Now that's fun.
Doug is not a sports fan at all. He'll watch the World Series or the NBA championships - maybe. He watches the Super Bowl only because it's a party! Years ago Doug offered to make dinner on Sundays during the NFL season. Works for me! Not only is he a good cook, but I get to spend my favorite day of the week doing one of the things I like best - watching grown men run around grassy fields!
Now that's love for 'ya.
