My honey won a 1460 call-in contest last Christmas when she went 5 for 5 on football trivia. :biggrin:

When she goes to the mall, she never returns home without something OSU. Last time she went, she game home with a #7 jersey. I told her "thanks, but I don't wear a medium," and she told to me to go buy my own, because she bought it for herself. :p

My wife knew nothing of football when we started dating. My favorite question from her was, "Why does the guy with the ball just go crashing into the other players?" She's gotten to like football enough to watch as long as she has a team to root for (which is the Buckeyes, 99% of the time).

She said she listened to the game on the radio yesterday, while she painted the kitchen. (Yes, I went to the football game and left my wife at home to paint the kitchen.) She recognizes a lot of the names, and even knows the numbers of a couple of the players (mainly just #7, though, but also #2, because it's just a funny number). She doesn't know the difference between "cornerback" and "linebacker," but she knows what "offensive line" is and "running back" and "quarterback."

You know, I should probably go downstairs and help her paint the bedroom...

My wife has a pretty decent amount of knowledge for football, and enjoys watching it. Unfortunately I enjoy watching football games with crazy, rabid guys.......I love her to death, but when I watch football I need my space. :biggrin:

Well, since my hubby is a former football player he of course knows as much as me. During the games (at home) he is always at the VC running the inside security force. Though he does stop occassionally to yell at the dozens of tvs if something goes against us.

I've found a beautiful, intelligent woman who actually went with me to the alumni bar in Atlanta yesterday and said that if I want her to come back to any more games, I'd better get her a tOSU shirt. I love this woman beyond words.

We're looking forward to maybe watching the PSU game with you guys in Boston, Sushi.
