So, lots of Bowl games on.
Bryant Gumbel can't stop using the expression "went down in the arms of." As in, "The wide receiver just went down in the arms of the safety," (or whatever positions are appropriate) (Ha. I said positions.) Meaning the guy was tackled. It of course struck both of us at the same time. I was smirking and Husband says, "I don't like that. Sounds like they're on a date."
Also, at some point one team was 10 down with about 5 minutes to go and about to score. The commentator says, "All you need is a touch down or a field goal and you're still in the game." Husband and I look at each other. He says, "AND A DOUBLE TOUCHDOWN WINS THE GAME!!!!" *snickers*
He and AG33 have a game going. It's actually very sweet. They will watch the ticker at the bottom of whatever game is on, and then decide who would win if the two mascots were "versing" each other, as AG33 says in tae kwon do speak. (Master Thomas: AG33, you vs. Kevin! results in the report "I was versing Kevin...")
So, Husband will say, "Wildcats v. Mountaineers?" And AG33 will come back with a verdict. They used to just do this while sitting together watching a game, but it has gotten to the point that sometimes Husband will see a game - this weekend it was Terrapins v. Beavers - and he will go up to AG33's room to ask him. For the record, AG33 thought it would be Terrapins. And I believe he recently went with Tigers over Cowboys, as well.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
seleneheart maybe amused to know that the Hokies always lose, because AG33 can't figure out what a Hokie is, and if he doesn't know what it is, he has to assume it will lose. He also has trouble deciding what to do about the Demon Deacons, though I'm not sure why, exactly.
UPDATE: AG33 corrected me. He chose THE BEAVERS, as "Terrapins aren't really that big," referring to the size of their mascot. :D Though he did seem to be having a hard time deciding.
