In the fall and winter you better believe on Sunday afternoons, football is blaring on every economy car-priced HD flat screen TV in 99% of all southern households.

Having never lived anywhere other than here, I wouldn't know. But I do know that as I sit, in glorious awe and watch the ranting, boisterous behavior of the man I love, I feel like this has to be a southern thing. Surely by the grace of God not all men are like this! Now don't get me wrong, I love the south and I love a southern man, but good heavens this is ridiculous! When I hear jokes or see parodies of "southern men", well, this is it and all I can do is shake my head. Bless your hearts, southern women (or any woman related to a die-hard football fan)!
