People on my block thought it was that important enough to honk and yell at the top of their lungs. I myself was at a party intended for people who had little or no knowledge of football, and pretty much smirked anytime someone whooped or cursed. I just felt like, oh please. It's just pigskin. Come September, though, let's just see how my Mets are doing. :)
See, I'm a year-round sports-hatin' grinch. I do not care what team is doing what, who's trash-talking whom, or what city's got bragging rights for which trophy. I enjoy playing sports, and, truthfully, I'd always wanted to play football as a girl, but I hate the armchair sport-os. HAAAATE. Because 24-7, 365, it's pre-season, season, post-season, championships, drafts, and recycle. Urgh.
Whereas if I were to go about shrieking my head off when the season finale of something was really awesome or were I to attend a con dressed up with makeup as my favorite character, I am the freak. Sports are for people who can't embrace their inner nerds and just go with it. ::nods::
