Columbus during football season is just a crazy place to live!  I
ran to the grocery store today and at least half of the people in the
store were wearing scarlet and grey and at least half of those (and
some of the others) were obviously getting food and drinks for their
“First Game of the Season” party.  I mean, it’s the first game of
the season, and it’s not even a conference game!  The funny thing
is that I went to OSU, and I really like to watch football.  But
there is just a level of insanity about the Buckeyes here that is
mind-blowing!

The crazy part is that my husband couldn’t care less about
football.  He is not a sports guy at all.  In fact, he very
much despises team sports!  It’s sometimes strange to be married
to someone for whom sports is not a central part of their being.
My brother, and to some extent my dad, is a HUGE sports fan.  He
watches multiple channels of multiple sports pretty much every
day.  In high school, he got B’s and C’s, but my mom said he’d
probably do better on his science and history tests if the information
was somehow inserted in the Sporting News instead of printed in
textbooks.  So that’s what I was used to, what I was expecting to
encounter when I got married.  And instead, I like the sports more
than my husband does!  See…God does have a sense of humor!
