Those are the worst. Or the ones that say they know a bunch of stuff and then flat-out lie to you. I once knew a girl that claimed that she had gotten drunk one night with Cal Ripken. Granted, she was the craziest girl I ever knew... but it was a ridiculous lie.

As a female who loves baseball (and the Cards in particular)...and gets into football once the WS is over, but can't stand boxing or soccer..I am just glad my hubby has his own stuff to do when baseball is on. LOL He doesn't like the game (I only got him into a stadium twice-once because the Statler Brothers were doing a concert at the ballpark after the game (and he didn't go until the 7th inning stretch) and once because he bought me tickets to my first ever game at Busch II for my birthday) He's ok with me being into it as long as I don't drag him along. (and I let him go to a Chiefs game every year)...

He must not drink, because even if you don't like the game, or it's a blowout etc. you can always have fun at the ballpark pigging out on nacho's and drinking beer.

I love that my girlfriend is willing to learn about the game, and I'm even more amazed she pays attention to the stuff I say.

We were watching a game last year, and after the play, she commented "why did he try to stretch that double into a triple? There are still no outs. That's stupid."

I wanted to stand up and applaud her.

Is that what we're calling it now? Applause?

I hope I get some applause tonight...

my wife grew up a softball umps kid (used to ump Lisa Fernandez and them in SoCal) she stayed away from the sport but was a casual fan. I had to teach her how to play and now she is a big fan, sports are on at home 90% of the time...
