I think I yell too much when watching football. You have to understand though; I'm a Detroit Lions fan. I sat through over a decade that was lost by incompetence and arrogance. My team was irrelevant for over 10 years, the laughing stock of the league.
Finally, my team has people talking. They're 4-0, and some experts are picking them as on of the top 3 teams in the league. Meaningful football is stressful, especially when you're not used to it.
Anyway, I was watching the game with Olivia sitting next to me. Leah was in the kitchen talking to her mom on the phone. The Lions were playing Dallas in what became the greatest Lions game I have ever watched. Down 27-3 in the third quarter, they fought back to make it a game. I was yelling at the TV something like 'Stop it!' or 'GO!' depending on the action. Olivia is right next to me yelling 'Stop it!'. Leah came in the room and looked at me and said 'No, Mom, he's not yelling at Olivia, she's fine. They're sitting on the couch watching the Lions game.'
Later on in the next game, I stepped out of the room for a minute, and I hear my 2 year old yelling 'GO!' at the TV. That's my girl...
