I Must be Guilty

My wife has always labeled me as fanatical football fan, and with the Dallas Cowboys as my favorite team, an incorrigible fan.

I never really agreed to this, as Sunday is pretty much the only day I religiously watch fooball, and plus as an avid fan I compare myself to other fans I see and in my eyes I see a clear distinction.

This clarity took a huge blow last Christmas (I am writing this now as I am reminded of this as we enter football season, plus I had not set up the blog back then)! At the end of the day after I had sorted through all of my presents you would have thought I had recently been drafted by the Dallas Cowboys.

Here is a list of the gifts I received branded with the Dallas Cowboys:

A Santa Hat
A Fossil Watch
A Pajama bottom
A Baseball Cap
A Pullover Sweatshirt
A Blanket, throw or tapestry (whatver you want to call it)
A Mug (w/ shot glasses)
A Poster of the Cowboys Cheerleaders (which I didn't get to keep)
Playoff tickets in the mail (which i paid for myself and didn't get to use)
A Frog wearing a Cowboys Jersey that sings 50 Cents "In Da Club"

These gifts came from family, fellow fans, a couple of vendors I work with, even my brother's girlfriend chipped in. If you combine this with the fact that I am a Season Ticket Holder, attend 1 road game every year, I tivo every game, the folks at church tease me that they know I will not be there when the Cowboys play a home game, and that I just got back from visiting training camp in San Antonio. I probably would be found unaminously guilty in any court. Even the worst of trial lawyers could nail me on this charge.....
