Seriously, I had almost posted a response to the same effect. My wife came late to the game but, now, screams hysterically at every good or bad play made. She may not be the most knowledgable fan, but she certainly is a fanatical fan.

My wife's a little more laid back nowadays but I hear stories from her family when she was a teenager screaming at the tv and weeping when particular sports events didn't go the way she wanted. We unpacked a box of hers during Super Bowl weekend (Bears fan, ugh) and she had so much fun recanting games from the 80's and times that she got to meet players.

First, I want to be on record as saying I love the song "Kumbayah". Especially the version by Guadalcanal Diary.

Second, I have to retract my earlier post. Of course there are women who know and love football. Sally Jenkins just doesn't appear to be one of them. Camille Paglia knows a lot about football and I suppose she's a woman. I suspect she and I like a lot of the same things.

Furthermore, it was ridiculous of me to say that Natalie Gulbis should be driving the beer cart. She should be playing golf, from the ladies tees.

In closing, I want to say how much I appreciate the kindness all of you have shown in trying to educate and enlighten me. What you are doing is very important. You should all give yourselves a big hug. Before I was stumbling around in a prison of my own misguided beliefs, but now I'm free. Free to agree with all of you. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

Thank god you saw the light before we made you knit something.
