James Moss Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Well my wife was born in Indiana so when I first met her she was a Colt’s fan. I totally respect that, but I have converted her and now she is right there with me donning burgundy and gold outfits, cheering and screaming for every game. She totally admires Joe Gibbs and what woman wouldn’t? A righteous, devoted family man, humble and selfless; the man has more integrity in his pinky-finger than most men have in their entire body; myself included.:notworthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heatman28 Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My wife is starting to come around ever since I took her to a live game last year 49ers @ Redskins! That was a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My wife, who wasn't a sports fan when I met her, has embraced the Redskins and goes to around six games a year with me. She's a huge help in preparing for the tailgate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjoolius Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My wife is from western PA and is a huge Steeler fan. I'd almost venture that she knows more about football than me. We have kind of come to an understanding that the skins are her favorite NFC team and I've accepted the Steelers as my AFC team to root for. It works well since both teams share a mutual hatred for the cowboys. Thank god I don't have to deal with a rival NFC east fan in the house. Could be legitimate grounds for a divorce.

Walking Deadman Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My wife likes the Skins....not a huge football fan but goes to a few games with me each year..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooley4President Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My fiance' is a huge Skins fan. In fact, when I explained to her that I was going to propose at the Skins/Bears game last year, but I decided not to because I thought that between the phone calls and hugs and stuff that I might miss about a quarter's worth of action, she understood and applauded my decision. Then she proceeded to drive me home after I drank entirely too much on the club level after the game. She's a big college football fan as well, but unfortunately she's a WVU fan because her family is from WV and her grandfather played for the Mountaineers. I'm working on her though, she'll be a Terps football fan before you know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveStrongSkins Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My fiance loves the Redskins. She doesnt get the whole why do we have 15 new players this year concept :laugh:, but whatever team we field come September she is sitting right there with me cheering them on.

Coooleeey Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My girlfriend isn't really a football fan. Apparently a past boyfriend was a jerk and didn't explain the actual game to her. Who wants to sit and watch something they have no clue about. It was rough at first with her trying to pick fights with me b/c I wasn't paying attention to her. Towards the end of the season she watched every game and started recognizing who the players were and what they do. Time, just need to give it more time. I know when she's mad at me b/c she will call me a cowboy fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail_Skinz Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 My wife is a Giants fan :doh: Although in season's past (when the Giants have stunk up the joint) I was able to get her to watch Skins games with me -- I thihk she had a thing for Jamie Asher...

preskit Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 You have been dating the same woman for 6 years and have not had to get married? You are a great example to all of us. We should all take a lesson here. Met my fiance almost 6 years ago, she had never been to a Redskins game (she was a hockey nut, Caps fan) since i took her to one game she forgot about hockey pretty much, skins fan thru and thru!
