An introduction!

thought for along time that as a wife and mother to a Clemson family that we “wives” needed a place to turn. When my husband pulls out his cellphone I know its not to call someone, check his email, nor do I wonder if he is texting another woman. I know that he is in another world that I am not sure at times I even understand but this world is called Clemson Football.

For those of you who know exactly what I am talking about and know that the summer is coming to a close not because of kids starting school or the weather changing but because we have totally lost our husbands due to the start of practice and the countdown to the first game. Oh an it doesn’t stop there!! Once we get to the first game its will we win the ACC championship this year? Will we beat USC? and no I do NOT mean Southern Cal! Halfway through the season starts the who we have to beat to make it to the ACC Championship. This cycle never ends and once you think “HEY!, its almost December which means football is almost over and I may get my husband back for a few minutes!” they pull the rug out from under you and we still have Bowl Games, Basketball season, then recruits, baseball, and then the ever dreaded lul of the summer.

I will tell you that I am a diehard Clemson fan and I cheer along with my husband when we score, I hoot and hollar when South Carolina looses! But I do not read every post on Tiger Illustrated nor do I follow high school football players that are highly rated. I remind you that I have 2 boys under the age of 3 but I do have a hard core Clemson loving husband and I know that I am not alone! So for those of you that are in this situtation or maybe you are dating a diehard fan, sit back and spend a few minutes a week reading my attempt to find the humor in this crazy yet wonderful life of a Clemson Football Wife!
