Things Women Shouldn't Expect A Man To Give Up (and my commentary)

D showed this to me one day so we could laugh together and most I laughed some I just thought men are so dumb sometimes!! So I decided to post them and share my comments with you! :)


1. Three-hour long conversations in mid-May about the post-spring depth chart with your college buddy. (really?? )

2. The right to break out the tape of the 1986 Georgia game when college buddy is in town. (Thankfully D doesn't own this!!)

3. The right to name your first child after a member of the 1981 National Championship team even if its a girl. (I think after naming our first child Conner J which makes his initials CJS like CJ Spiller, I reserve the right to veto since I carried the baby for 9mths and gave birth to the 7lbs child!!)

4. The right to name your dog Ken Hatfield, at least until its housebroken. (go for it!)

5. Week-long fits of depression after a loss. (A week long?? Seriously! Then I reserve the right to divorce your lazy butt!)

6. Listening to sports talk radio during supper during spring football season (March-April), football season (Late July – Early January) and recruiting season (January – February). (I think I married a man not a sportscaster! When you start getting paid to do all that I will reconsider!)

7. The right to jump over you to reach the nearest male to slap high fives after a touchdown. (Make sure you slap me high five first!)

8. The right to talk to all ex-girlfriends while tailgating. (I then reserve the right to punch you in the face right after. If thats not a big deal then go for it!)

9. Your orange overalls and orange cowboy hat. (D would die if I even suggested that he wear that!)

10. Your old Clemson t-shirts, the old ones can go in a drawer, but any from the past ten years are to be hung in the closet. (Babe I hate to tell you this in a post but I think I threw those away and some I use to clean the furniture now.)

11. The right to skip the wedding of any couple dumb enough to schedule theirs on the Saturday of a Clemson game even if you’re supposed to be the best man. (This brings back memories of planning our wedding.. Anyone stupid enough to plan a wedding during foobtall season in the south deserves for no one to show up!)

12. Listening to sports talk radio every night during the height of recruiting season, even if its during your child’s birthday party. (Again I reserve the right to smack you in the face!)

13. Your orange cowboy hat. (hahahahhahahaha)

14. The 45 of Death Valley Disco. (what?!?)

15. Playing Tiger Rag at 7:30 a.m. on game days so loud the neighbors can hear it. ( I will be right next to you screaming C-L-E-M-S-O-N!)

16. TigerNet. (Don't even get me started on this...)

17. Walking through the floats at Homecoming. (Really? What Clemson wife gets mad at this??)

18. Delusions that you’re still cool enough to hang out in the student section. (Yea your really not but again I will be standing right beside you raising hell!)

19. Your collection of old stadium cups. (This is what I drink out of everyday, is that wrong?)

20. Drinking from old stadium cups. (Again whats wrong with that?)

21. The hatred of all things Garnet.(I ditto this!)

22. Wearing your Clemson ring. (aww babe Ill get you one some day!!)

23. Your Obed Ariri for Heisman poster. (What?)

24. The right to correct anyone that pronounces it Clem-zun (Its Clemp-son!) (Thats REALLY ANNOYING!!!)

25. Walking to the stadium without having to stop by the port-a-toilet for her. (Hey I can wait just as long as you can buddy!)

26. Silence from Clemson to home after a loss, no matter how long the drive. (Ill give you this one!_

27. Wearing your lucky No. 13 Rodney Williams jersey to all Clemson games, even basketball games. (Just remember I have a signed football that he gave to me personally! I win this one!)

28. Second-guessing every play on the way home even after a win. (Ok Ill give you this one too. I might even suggest a few things as well!)

29. Three-hour conversations with college buddy about the latest commitment. (As long as I can name the next boy Rodney ;))

30. Two-hour conversations with college buddy about the latest rumored commitment. (As long as I get a massage we are good)

31. That stack of old Clemson football programs. (Are actually in the attic so your good on that one)

32. Your right to quote every score from the 1981 National Championship season to her. (Can we just look ahead already!)

33. Your right to get misty eyed when the name Danny Ford is brought up. (We are not that fan... DABO ALL THE WAY!!)

34. Your preference for white on white uniforms on the road. (Im pretty sure D would say all Purple so no on this one too)

35. Your right to wave at every Clemson fan you pass on the way to road games. (Im waving too!!)

36. Leaving church if the pastor isn’t finished by noon so you can catch the Dabo Sweeney Show. (Our pastor is a Bama fan and is out by noon!)

37. Your preference for upper deck seats so you can see the plays develop. (Can we compromise on the upper section of the lower deck?)

38. Your orange high tops. (NO!)

39. Delusions that you really should have walked on while you were at Clemson. (lolololololololol!!!)

40. The tenth beer while tailgating. (Tenth or 20th?)

41. Going onto the field after every game. (Sure just make sure to come back with a section of grass from the paw :))

42. Frequent retelling of where you were when Puntrooskie took place. (Im pretty sure I was too young to remember this but I will just say for the record "Ive been a Clemson fan longer than you have!!!)
