“We make men without chests and we expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and we are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful."- C.S. Lewis in The Abolition of Man

Not sure all of this advice is the best, but, just in case there are any non-football fans out there:
They sure wear pretty costumes. What inning is it? Why does that one guy have his hands up the other's butt? Is that guy who scored a touchdown having a seizure? Twenty-two men stand up and twenty-two men fall down? What just happened to Janet Jackson? Can we turn it over to my soap rerun?
My wife usually just asks, "Who's playing?" and "Who's winning?" She doesn't care.
But the fact is, during the game, those are about the only questions I can answer, and they do help provide some context to the various things I'm shouting, screaming and throwing.
