ORIGINAL: charismagirrl my other question is what have others learned/about to please your "M"/"D"? NLF football. Over the years, i have watched high school, college, and NFL games but never did quite understand it that much. Frankly, i didn't really care enough about it to take time to learn about it. Master loves the game and understands more about it than many, i would venture to guess. i wanted to be able to watch it and discuss it with Him intelligently so i began researching it on my own. "Football For Dummies" was indeed my first stop and i found it very helpful. i read through some other books and on the 'net and just watched it, trying to solidify what i had learned. He was very pleased with my initiative in this matter. (As a matter of fact, i made a point to bring up the newest issue of SI's "mock draft" last night and He really enjoyed the conversation[8D]). i still have much to learn but i look forward to it now that i know enough to not be totally clueless when W/we watch a game. On a side note (perhaps this could be a thread of it's own), i'd like to mention something that Master is learning about that pleases me. NASCAR. Though He is a Southern Man, born and bred, He has never been a fan [:o]. He knows how much i enjoy stock car racing and that i really do know alot about the sport. He mentioned that He would like to know more about it Himself. So, i have suggested some books to Him and when W/we can, W/we watch races and He asks questions. Listening to the questions He asks makes me see it through "new eyes" so to speak ("why" do they do this and "why" do they do that). Plus, if there's something i can't answer, it prompts me to go find out for Him. It has been very fun for both of U/us to learn about each others' favorite sports (even though at first, He contended NASCAR wasn't a "sport." Heretic! If He had been anyone but Master - well, you can imagine [;)]).........slave luci
