Last year my hunny the kids and I were watching a football game with some friends. *I don't remember the game, and who was playing*. Me, I know a little about football...like who is playing defense and who is playing offense...and who made a touch down. That is about the extent of it. My fav college team is Auburn, and my fav NFL is Greenbay, and are really the only games I follow.
We were all sitting around, having a good time. Drinking a few beers *of course the adults only...lol*.
On the screen there were people holding up a sign and chanting *GO*......a D sign and then a 'white picket fense' sign......well smart me....
I asked 'WHO THE HELL IS D PICKETT ANYWAYS......??????????'
DEFENSE....................
Well needless to say.....the whole room got silent and huge outbursts roared the room.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
No, I will never live that one down!

ps~ I blame it on the beer

Health Wellness & Wealth ConsultantI'm with you on Football Jen. I love the game, love to watch, and even like "tryiing" to play sometimes..lol. You are better than me on the rules..I seriously did not know.... Okay..too embarrassing, I don't want a mob of folks making fun of me too..lol. I leave the part about football that I did not know, open to your imaginations. Okay..I will say, Who is D Picket. ha..ha. I don't know either. Is Picket a last name, and D is for Defense? Guess I should go look it up before I make a comment..lol. Dec 27th 2007 14:26 |

 Just plain honestyI don't think that you should punish yourself too much. The rest of the world looks at American football and understands little of it. The players all seem to be incarcerated in their own little cells and have so much padding they appear like grotesques. It is called football but the ball is seldom actually kicked. The main object of the game seems to be to disable as many of the opposite team as possible to ensure that they cannot attempt to intercept the ball. Every time the ball leaves the field it seems a conference is called and the game clock stops. People who can actually kick the ball are kept on the bench until there is an opportunity for them to kick it. They kick the ball - then go back to the bench. There seems to be more skill of 'throwing' on the terraces where snack vendors seem able to hit the target every time. The teams have the right to stop the game a number of times for reasons of gamesmanship, regrouping or just to suck a lemon, who knows? To be able to kick a goal, the kicker even has a little stand to place the ball on and as much time as he likes to ensure it is teed up as he wants. It is, indeed, a fascinating game - if only it didn't stop every few seconds. I've heard of a short attention span but, surely, this is just a bit over the top? Dec 27th 2007 15:47 |

 Medical Billing/Coding/InsuranceJenn actually if it wasn't for me actually being one of the one's holding "Mr Picket" at a local college football game in my teens, I would have been lost too! Actually the team probably would have done better if we let Mr Pickett play. The standard joke at the time was if William and Mary College won a football game, it was snowing in hell!

PromoterLOL.... Growing up I was in the marching band, so when I was at the football games, my mind was in the music. And then when I was in the stands, I just knew when to play our FIGHT SONG....hahahahaha! I try to watch these sports with my kids. My oldest son is a huge baseball fan. Now trust me...with all that is going on with the 'pros'...I am at all not excited to encourage my kids to go that route. But when your kids really have the talent in a sport, why take it away from them. The only sport I can tell you about just about all of it is NASCAR......then I won't be ignorant ...or a dumb blonde....or just absolutely know nothing about any other sport....lol.....*or have to use beer as an excuse...* HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Medical Billing/Coding/InsuranceWow Jenn you are not alone! I was at a burger joint for lunch and there was a game on the TV. The counter girl and the cook were sort of shooting the breeze when I walked in (pretty slow for business today) and the counter girl asked the cook if people bring pieces of fence to all the games. I just thought about you and laughed! I had to let you know there's more of you out there! Dec 31st 2007 15:33 |
