1. White Sox fan here, married Red Sox fan
makes watching those AL games difficult, not to mention childrearing. However, we decided that when the White Sox play the Red Sox, we will both be happy, because in any case Sox win.

I'm a STEELERS fan....so any Eagles fans are out.

However, I find women who like football
very appealing.....so eagle women are back

8. well Kirk
as you know I'm a Skins fan.

My baby brother, my favorite, my bestest bud is a raving, die-hard, jerk ass Cowboys fan.

But I still love him. Somehow we manage to co-exist.

:D

9. I'm a Steelers fan married to a Browns fan
It's not easy. Even worse - he's a Bush fan - obviously, I'm not.
We disagree on just about everything; but I still love him. Go figure.

11. That's nothing, I married a REPUBLICAN!
He's something special though, and I'm working on him.
Voted for Clinton 1st term, didn't vote the last 2 times.

He's also a Raiders fan (I'm a Niners fan).

Yikes.

13. No, unfortunately
He was swayed by all the criticism of Steve Earle when "John Walker's Blues" came out. Grrr.

So that means I'm going alone to see Steve at a local club in a couple of weeks...Well I'm sure I'll find someone to go with, I bought 2 tickets.
