I love to watch football. No like I really like to watch football. Serious I am that girl that yells and throws stuff at the TV and you are not allowed to talk except at commercials.
One of my favorite parts of football is when the Dallas Cowboys lose a game. I take great pleasure in watching them lose like they did on Sunday Nights game against Washington Redskins (insert evil laughter).
And last year I would have done just that but this year I am dating a HUGE Cowboys fan. And I mean he loves them as much as I dislike them. I didn't think it would be that big of a deal. We didn't start dating until the playoffs last season; in fact on our 2nd date we watched the Minnesota Vikings put the smack down on those Cowboys (insert more evil laughter). And it wasn't a big deal....at least I didn't think it was a big deal.
My mom thought I should have just broken up with him for liking the Cowboys but I thought its just one little thing. I thought I can over look the fact that he has no taste in football teams.
Until Sundays game that is....now I'm thinking can this relationship survive such a difference. This is our 1st football season together can I really watch football every week with a man who lives and breathes the Dallas Cowboys. My need to trash the cowboys is waring with my need to be a supportive girlfriend.
Should I really suppress my loathing of the Cowboys for a boy?
Does this go against what I have been preaching to my nieces and friends for years?
I'm not Sandra Dee I don't change for a man....men change for me!!!!
I'm not sure how this is going to play out, I may be calling offsides and unnecessary roughness but I bet its entertaining.
Michael,
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to know that I'm not the only one that loathes the Cowboys... Living with a huge fan is rough, but the games can get interesting, esp if you're rooting for the other team, EVERY TIME!!! Ask Spencer how it worked out!?!
I root for any team that is not the Dalllas Cowboys
ReplyDeleteDon't suppress your loathing...make it a game. My husband loves the Broncos, so I talk crap about his team and root for every other team that plays against them. It gives us something to playfully argue about. There's nothing wrong with the Broncos, I just enjoy the arguing lol
ReplyDeleteLOL....The BF is not playful about the Cowboys you would think he was Jerry Jones or something. lol. Now I just text friends while the game is on and bash them in silent.
