The much anticipated rival football game was played Saturday and guess who WON?!?! That’s right, not the “ranked” team, but little ole us. Now I’m not much of a football fan, but when the stakes are high I get a little excited. Since….. well…. forever, the Saint and I bet a dollar on each and every football and basket ball game played between our respective schools. It is a tad lopsided since we meet quite a bit more during basketball season than football season, but let’s just say I’ve amassed an astounding stack of $1 bills. Oh, what’s that you say? Did I KEEP them all? Oh, HELL yes!
I try not to rub it in too much when we win in basketball, but football? BWAHAHA! (My father even left me a message warning me not to gloat. Too bad I didn’t hear it until Sunday.) Sib # 2 and I went out Saturday night with her little man. She too attended the same fine, prestigious University as I. So we called Precious Oldest to

I can relate to this, a little bit. Hubby and I are both huge football fans. I went to Arizona State, hubby attended the U of Colorado. These two teams had never played each other in football, ever...until last year. They had scheduled two games, one last year and one this year. Last year it was in Colorado, and this year it was here. We even went to the game this year. I will mention that ASU won both times. ;) Thank goodness, they have no more scheduled games against each other. It's stressful!
However, your situation? I think had hubby attended the University of Arizona, we wouldn't even be married right now. The rivalry is that bad. So I totally get the whole in-state rivalry thing. You are totally justified in your gloating.
