Oh Lord, where did I go wrong?

This weekend, Jess and I were out and about taking care of errands and somehow our conversation gravitated to football. In the past, I’ve always loved when she would bring this subject up because it meant she was curious about what I thought about specific players, or when football season would begin, or to which games are we going this year, … that sort of thing. I’ve always enjoyed her interest in football, because not only was it something that she and I enjoyed together, it gave her a common interest with Jim as well! (I think he feels a little left out sometimes when she and I are discussing “girly things”)

Well, you can imagine my surprise when she hit me with: “I’ve been thinking about it and I’ve decided to be a Florida Gators fan!”

:blink_tb: Wait — say what?

I’m not sure how it happened, but my ‘Bama lovin’ baby has been turned to the Dark Side! :glurps_tb:

Jim’s reaction to this was, “Well, at least she’s staying within the conference.”

Me, I suspect that a boy has something to do with it. :dry_tb:

    You have failed as a parent. The rebellion has started. Nail the windows in her bedroom shut.

    “Me, I suspect that a boy has something to do with it.”
    Or many. Are the Florida Gators a good looking team? ;-)

      No more than any other college team I guess. Keep in mind that she’s eleven, so I figure it’s someone locally influencing her new-found team pick.

    perhaps she might have caught one of the zillion tv specials on TEBOW?

    anyway, its going to be another GREAT season in the SEC… the West should be tough but “her” Gators should have a fairly easy ride to the champ. game.
