QOTD - Part II

Ok, so since this morning's question was a dud, I decided to post another round of QOTD just for fun (and because work is painfully slow today):

Do you watch sports with FH? If so, did you always enjoy it? Or did you learn to love it because it was something you could share as a couple? Does FH have a hobby or interest that you didn't used to enjoy but now share with him? Or vice versa?

Jason isn't into watching sports of any kind. So, I got super lucky with that--since I have never had an interest in watching or playing sports at all. He is, however, obsessed with F-1 racing and watches all the televised races...and those suckers are LONG. I used to sit with him and 'watch' the races--always while 'multitasking' (playing on my tablet, tweezing my eyebrows, etc. lol)--but over time, I actually started paying attention and caring about who the drivers were and the backstories of the various teams. And I came to enjoy it--not enough to watch it without him, mind you, but enough to root for my favorite drivers and at least know most of their names. Jason is highly amused by my random outbursts of F-1 knowledge. And, for his part, he has paid enough 'in-passing' attention to Bridezilla Bootcamp that he was 'hating' Kirsten by the finale! LOL.

Edited because my spelling is atrocious.

FH loves football, but I can't stand it. I think it's so boring!! But, I humor him and bring him beer while he watches. :) I've even sat through two Super Bowls so far.

I love sports. I grew up in a house where the Yankees were on all the time and on Sunday football was on tv in the den from 12 in the afternoon until whenever at night....but FH barley watches any sports! He'll occasionally watch a Jet game but that's about it. I would go over to his house and put the football game on and he would get hold of the remote and change the channel!

He's mostly into car shows and the History channel. I HATED all the stupid car shows he watches but now they've grown on me.....I prefer sports though!

I do watch sports with FH. He is a football fan and enjoys watching the games so I put up with it haha. I don't follow football and he has repeatedly try to explain it to me and I am like what? I am more of a baseball fan. I enjoy watching him watch football, does that make sense? I love how riled up he gets it's cute. I was never into 'nerdy' things. He loves Star Wars, comic books, Star Trek, Marvel, DC and all that which I now love. He has converted me into a nerd!! I love him.

Do not watch sports with him. I find baseball & football to be incredibly boring (sorry). And whenever he watched it I went on my phone and played games, which annoyed him.

I do sometimes watch hockey. And I don't mind going to rangers games. But that's it. Although last playoff season I did get tired really quick of watching those games so often.

I was never into hockey like AT ALL until I met Richie. I thought it was the most boring thing ever, now I'm more into it than he is! I am basically obsessed LOL. It doesn't hurt that Lundqvist is easy on the eyes

I've always been a hockey girl. I love love LOVE the New York Rangers.

Tom is an Islander fan. But not a die hard fan like I am with the Rangers.

He watches the games with me and makes fun of me for being a mad spectator.

I'm a HUGE Islanders fan! My dad has had season tix for as long as I can remember. I also like football and baseball. I have always loved sports! I even majored in Sports Marketing in college.

FH is a very big sports fan too! Though the only team we have in common is the Pittsburgh Steelers, everything else we get to fight over lol.

I am a die hard NY Giants fan and my FH comes from a Jets family. Big issue! Lol. We argue over who we will raise our children to root for but had no problem deciding we would not choose a religion for our child ! Lol

He is a huge Islanders fan, but I'm not as into hockey whereas, I LOVE college basketball and he hates it.

My FH is a comic book geek and has got me to some of the movies. He's also really into XBox but way beyond a relatable level. I stick my Wii!

So I am not American and I do not get American sports of any kind. FH, on the other hand, loves baseball, football and hockey. I've been to a number of games with him and I've tried watching all the sports he does. I am really starting to like hockey. FH is a huge Rangers fan, and sometimes I surprise him with the things I've learnt. Besides, Lundqvist is pretty awesome.

Oh where do I start?! When I first met FH I introduced myself & the next words out of my mouth were 'are you an islanders fan?' When the answer was yes, my next question was 'are you a jets fan?' AND when that answer was a yes I was interested. Haha. Sports teams are super important to me. People always hear that story & ask what is he said no he was a rangers fan or giants fan? and my answer is i would have never entertained the thought of going on a date with him. Thats the honest truth.

I am a die hard islanders fan. I bleed blue & orange. My dad never had boys so he raised me to love sports. I watch every game all season & go to as many as 30 games a year. Michael & I had our first date to an islanders game.

As far as football I am a die hard jets fan as well. Michael wasnt as big into football as he is now until he met me & my crazy a$$ family. Sundays during football season are spent with me cooking and then watching the Jets game and any other game that is on & RedZone. His family has comes to learn that I don't do anything on a Sunday besides watch football. They didn't get it at first but now they do (kinda) Michael & I are in the same fantasy league and many of the guys in the league come over every Sunday as well. We literally eat and drink from 1 o'clock until the end of Sunday night football. (This is gonna be tough for me since I'm dieting for the wedding lol) I could go on & on haha a lot of our world & my moods revolves around our teams.

This really makes me sound like a classy broad.

As for baseball- FH is a Yankees fan. I find baseball incredibly boring & I'd rather poke my eyeballs out then watch a game on tv. I can usually go to a game or two during the season but I mainly go for the food

I was raised to be a diehard Met fan and a die hard Ranger fan.. In college my friends would bring me to Giant games.. so even though I was suppose to be raised a Jet fan I kinda went on my own with Football and am A diehard Giant fan.. I never really watched on TV unless my dad was watching. and Met games on TV literally put me to sleep. no joke I fell asleep while folding laundry watching a Met game once..mid fold!! But I absolutely love going to Shea.. ( It will always be Shea!!)

And FH has all the same favortie teams.. The only difference is HE IS A SUPER DIE HARD RANGER FAN.. I now never miss a game on TV can tell you stats scream at the TV ( Esp at Rosen. He needs to retire!) We have a whole Ranger wall with autographs and pictures of the 94 Rangers.. His daughter has even met most of the current players and Richter and Leetch and has her little Zucc jersey.. LOL.. I am also a die hard Nascar fan and Sundays I will generally go to my moms to watch.. FH followed NASCAR till Dale Sr died then he stopped watching but now follow it again for me and follows Jr. and I can tell he is even happy when my driver wins.

Other changes I find myself getting more and more into his educational shows.. He watched alot of shows on NASA and space shuttles, and weather. Our TV is usually on Discovery or Animal Planet or History of one of our usual shows is not on and I have learned to love those stations and get into those shows as well..My favorite is Finding Big Foot I love make fun of them..LOL

I've always been a Jets/Mets/Islanders fan!
FH has always been a Giants/Mets/Rangers fan.

We love watching sports together and going to games together! My family has season tickets for the Jets and my dad invites FH to games all the time. I joke around like 'he's not even a Jets fan!' but my dad responds with 'I enjoy his company and I want him to be there!' Serious bromance between those two. Couldn't be happier :)

FH and I can't wait to host football sundays when we get our own place!
