Oh man. So, there we were, right? And she says to me, she says, "so, (my name), I have to tell you something." And so I say, "well, what is it?" So then she says, "I'm pregnant." So then I say, "Well, at least I'll be a father." Finally she says, "it's not yours."

Talk about egg on my face. Golly.

None of this actually happened, but it was a good story.

We were at my wife's Uncle's house, his daughter's graduation party. Big family get-together and I was playin football with all the kids. One of them was a beast in the making, had a decent arm, could catch, had good size, etc.. We'd been playin for a while when I said "C'mere little dude" to the beast. "Im a girl" was the reply... I felt horrible........

2 weeks ago at a happy hour. Did the classic so when is the big date for you and your fiance moment. Not knowing they called it off months ago. DOH. :gnorsi:

Did this exact same thing but my faux pas was also in front of about 8 other people at a work tradeshow event last week incluing my boss and his boss and a bunch of coworkers from both of our companies.

The last time I'd seen this guy was about a month before, and we talked for a while about his wedding and the honeymoon and whatever else, so I thought it was reasonable to ask about it again. Brought it up in a lull in the conversation and immediately knew by his face they were done.

So awkward.

One time I volunteered to teach a crafts class to my daughters afterschool program and there was a girl there who looked like a linebacker. I kept calling her a him, or a dude, and then remembering and apologizing - she kept telling me it was ok but I felt so awful about it, and still do.

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
