It's football season, people! I'm psyched to see USC take on Notre Dame tomorrow. I'll be watching with my family, at home in San Diego. The last time I watched football with a guy (youknowwho), he said I needed to do a better job of keeping track of who had the ball. So I decided to ask a few of my guy friends how a woman should act when she goes with a date to a football-watching party. Jason, Ross, Pete, and John all had a lot to say about this matter, so I'm glad I asked! The art of … Read More

Though autumn doesn't officially start until next week, football season has already begun. And, as I said last week, a gal with or interested in a football-loving dude has only two options: like it or lump it. Read: How To Manage His Love Of Football

The preferred option, as always, is "like it," and there are two ways to do so: actually like it, and fake it until you make it. If you're in the "actually like it" category, congratulations, you are a fan of America's most popular sport and you can stop reading now. If you're still reading … Read More

We'd heard that last Sunday morning Tila Tequila called the cops on her boyfriend, San Diego Charger Shawne Merriman. The two were at Shawne's house in San Diego when Tila claimed he choked her and tried to physically restrain her.

We hadn't seen the evidence until now, and it's actually not pretty. Some sites are accusing Tila of pursuing Rihanna-scale publicity, but Tila's allegations look legit. YourTango: A Domestic Violence Survivor's Advice For Rihanna

Here's how the fight and arrest appear to have gone down: Shawne and Tila had been out at the … Read More

The NFL kicks off this week (September 10th), the college ranks began playing ball sometime last week. On any given weekend (Thursday to Sunday), there will be up to 30 hours of gridiron action, and that doesn't include pregame shows, the highlights or any games that may have been recorded along the way. 

Unless your guy is a complete diehard or employed by ESPN, he'll probably watch only a fraction of those games, say 6 – 15 hours… per weekend. That's not an insignificant amount of boobtube time. Being men, our hands are sort of tied on this. Football is … Read More

Elisabeth Hasselbeck can't win. She gave birth Sunday in New York City to her third child, a boy weighing 7 lb., 7 oz. According to husband, Tim Hasselbeck, "Elisabeth and Isaiah are doing great."

This morning her anti-fans, apparently of left-wing orientation, are giving her a brutal time. They’re criticizing the name of her son, Isaiah Timothy, saying not only is it a target for schoolyard teasing; it's also a strong Christian reference. Isaiah is a Catholic saint and one of the best known prophets in the Bible's Old Testament. Scholars say he predicted the coming of Jesus … Read More

If I wanted a Barbie & Ken-themed birthday party (which I never would) and could convince my boyfriend to attend it (which I never could), I think I'd feel pretty certain that that'd be the last I'd ever see of him.

So what was Jessica Simpson thinking? (Okay, don't answer that.) Tony Romo dumped her the day before her 29th birthday party, and according to reports it's because he was just over maintaining her. Celebitchy has reported that sources who knew the couple attribute the split to her neediness and desire to get married and have … Read More

When we heard that someone was painting parking spots pink in an effort to ease women drivers between the yellow lines, we got to thinking. Is it female drivers who need the extra room or the overzealous man who can't keep his hands off our curves? Sure we've been known to shudder at the onset of an occasional spider but that's more for your benefit than ours. Men are always making modifications for their female counterparts. From shaving cream for women to push-ups on our knees, we feel as though you're trying to tell us something.

Female friendly parking … Read More

Millions of couples will snuggle up on the couch or go out to celebrate the Super Bowl this Sunday. The national event that conjures images of wings, beer and hearty brouhaha can be the biggest day of the year to some and just another Sunday to others. And sometimes those differing esteems exist within a couple. We know what you're thinking: the guy's the one glued to the TV, right?

We love relationships that defy stereotypes, so we set out to find couples in which she's the sports fan and he's not. Below, two relationships where the lady loves sports … Read More

Like most women on the planet, I dreamed that I would one day find the perfect man. Someone who would not mind me occasionally bringing home a stray dog or cat. A man who could watch Monty Python's Holy Grail repeatedly and would still have a beverage shoot out his nose when the Frenchman says, "I fart in your general direction." And, most importantly, I longed for a man who could spend many a Sunday afternoon lying on the couch watching football with me. Honestly, I thought that the last requirement on my list … Read More

I smile when I hear "Touchdown!" shouted from the living room. There I am in the kitchen making dinner while my wife watches the televised NFL playoff game on a Sunday afternoon. After 27 years of marriage, this is a perfectly normal scene for us."Are you watching the game again?" I shout."Yeah," she admits.We both see the humor in the situation—this does not fit the stereotype of men and sports.I grew up in a family where sports was not a major part of life. We played an occasional game of badminton or croquet and maybe tossed a softball, but … Read More
