Re: Women and Football.
One of my favorite people to talk about the 'Skins with is one of my wife's best friends from college. She was born in Fairfax and owns an autographed game-worn Darrell Green jersey.
The stereotype against females not knowing jack about football has some basis, simply because the majority of women do not like football. But that does not preclude the ones who do love it from knowing what they're talking about.
My wife is just starting to get into the Redskins, last season was the first time she would sit down and watch a game with me. I love watching a game with the guys, or my dad, or my brothers. But there was something special about watching the games with her; I guess it had something to do with finally sharing something that I had long been interested in and doing it together for the first time.
Thank God for Tivo though, because I don't know if I woulda had the patience to explain things without having a Pause Live TV feature!
