I Better Remember That The Day Pitchers & Catchers Report Is Also Valentine’s Day
The following is a true story…
Today, being Saturday, is errand day for our family. And, this afternoon, while we were out and about, in our hometown, at one point, we found ourselves at a red light, behind another car. Our kids were in the back seat, as usual. And, today, my wife was driving as I sat in the front passenger seat.
While we were at the aforementioned red light, my wife and I had this conversation:
Wife: Is the sun in your eyes? Why don’t you put on your sunglasses?
Me: No, it’s not the sun. I’m looking at this idiot in the car in front of us – with their “Boston Red Sox, 2007 World Champions” magnet on the back of their car.
Wife: I knew it! I could tell by that aggravated look on your face that you were looking at that magnet.
Me: [Laugh out loud]
Wife: You need to relax. It’s just a baseball team, you know?
Me: [Still laughing] No, it’s a way of life!
Wife: Yes, that’s something that I have painfully learned through the years.
Bless my bride. All these years, she’s had to put up with this stuff. Am I the only Yankees fan out that that drives their spouse/loved one crazy with this stuff?
I better start mixing in some “Cupid” with my “Stupid.”
I give your wive major props
Ha, I can be the same way. When the ’04 series was over I wanted to run anyone off the road that had any Sox paraphernalia on their car…
