Concerning baseball widows: six months out of every year I might as well be made of stone, six months out of every year when I'm with him, I'm alone--Damn Yankees!

Since my team is in the playoffs (hopefully headed for the Super Bowl) my husband (though a Mahi-Mahi ;) fan (lol) is still root a toot tooting (well not tooting) for my team. One of my 1st birthdays with him, he had a cake made up with goal posts “Better Luck Next Year” well it’s next year..well some year :)

At least your team is competitive. I live in Chicago, where a 3-14 team is talking about how good next year will be. (I recall that was the mantra last year after a 7-win season). Go (away) Bears!!
