Romper you should not have said anything.....now the **** will hit the fan, even though it should not. Good luck
That's sad. I was just really excited for her amazing win and wanted to share it since it's so rare to see an onside kick recovered then lead to a game winning score - especially since it was my daughter!
This is something we do together every day. It's one of our favorite ways to spend time together.
Believe what you guys want. I love that my daughter loves sports and plays WIS with me.
My last hope is my youngest daughter. I married a non-sports person, and my children carry the same disinterest for sports that she has. My youngest daughter enjoys the excitement of the crowd, so I am hoping to rope her in when she attends a game with me.
I feel you on that. My only son had no interest in sports at all. He was an absolute beast when he played pop warner football but he later told me he only played because he liked that I was his coach. So when he got to high school he focused on theatre and music. He now has his own band with an album on Spotify. I'm proud of him for following his dreams but I always hoped we'd share sports together.
My daughter got into sports during the covid lockdowns. We watched the NBA bubble finals together and even though it was pretty boring we made it fun and her analytical brain started crunching numbers and then once she realized how much more fun football was to watch she was hooked! Now she updates me with sports new before I even know it happens.
She's a huge Penn State fan (we're originally from PA) so I surprised her with a trip to Columbus to see PSU play at OSU. Penn State lost that day. I have a great pic of her with a huge mush on her face. But we had a blast then went to the Pro Football Hall of Fame the next day.
We went to the NCAA tournament last year when it was in Orlando. She was amazed with the tables all around the court and wanted to know what they were all doing. I told her they updated the stats on all the sports apps she loves in real time and I saw this light bulb moment go off in her head like OMG a human has to do that it's not magic!
Now she wants to be a sports journalist or statistics person. It's so much fun having a daughter who loves sports as much if not more than me! I sometimes go to the website Cameo where you can pay celebrities for shout outs. I have female sports reporters make her encouraging little videos with advice on how to get into the business. It would be really awesome if she ends up as the next Rachel Nichols - a woman who knows her stuff and can debate and win against pretty much anyone!
