The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for December 12, 2020

It’s as to explain the soccer “ouside” rule to a woman . I’m sexist ? Ask and few of them will answer correctly .

Who cares as long I don’t have to tackle the “Honey Do” list.

Let me guess. He’s either watching golf or cricket.

/SNARK/

Yep, she’s a true blonde.

Seems my whole family talks soccer….four knee replacements and several knee ‘clean-ups’ in the family. Once in a while I challenge the grand kids. Thankfully they are kind to me……

It could be hockey. That said, who ever scores the next goal.

The fans. Even if your team loses it’s still exciting.

Reminds me of the line from Ferris Bueller.

What’s the old line?

It’s a 0 – 0 tie. The game hasn’t started yet…

sudden death overtime?! what kinda violent show you watching?

excellent joke today sir. Made me laugh, almost loud enough to wake up my wife

“What’s the score, Thorny?”

“75-68.”

“Who’s winning?”

“75.”

Never was interested in football while growing up, and didn’t pay any real attention to it in early adulthood. My wife of my 2nd marriage is a big football fan. Early in our marriage I began to watching football. Showing my past ignorance and previous disinterest in the game, I asked her how could a player have 127 yards, when the length of a football field in only 100 yards end to end? Her reply was “It’s cumulative yards ran throughout the game dummy.” (true story) Never asked another football related question again.

“the sponsors”.

Ah, another Sport’s Wife asking dumb questions. When I go into the wife’s sewing room, I just ask how it’s going and let her talk. Sorry Brutus, I know your pain….

he can explain who’s winning right after he explains the difference between football and baseball

Sometimes I think the combined IQ of the Thornapple family would not break 100.

Funny!

Uhhggg! It’s like when someone asks “how many points did they score?” when you’re watching a Baseball game!

My wife was raised in a basketball town, the first time I took her to a pro baseball game it was a learning experience for her. As the game progressed many questions were asked and answered, then our starting pitcher got into serious trouble and the manager walked from the dugout to ask for a new hurler, my lady companion exclaimed, WOW that player is really fat, remember in basketball coaches don’t wear an uniform.

At least she’s feigning interest.

Brutus forgot he changed the channel during the last commercial and doesn’t know whose playing!
