Turning in my Man Card

Friday, June 6th, 2008

I admit it. I have not lived up to the standards set forth by my forefathers and male role models. For this egregious infraction I will, temporarily, turn in my man card.

What was my infraction, you say? I chose to watch So You Think You Can Dance [and I thoroughly enjoyed it] when I could have been watching game 1 of the NBA Finals.

What does this mean? For someone who prides himself on his sports knowledge and sense of sports history, this is a foul of epic proportions. This from the guy who went two years without missing a Pardon the Interruption? I hang my head in shame.

So, for the time being, if you pass me in the hallway or see me sitting at my desk, know that I am no longer worthy of my man card. I have turned it in. Only through hard work, perseverance and hours of Clint Eastwood-led rehabilitation can I get it back.

Now when is SYTYCD on next? I need to practice my moves.
