So i had an interesting encounter with a customer today. After telling me how he wanted to reach across the counter and rip my nametag off because it had the Patriots symbol on it, i immediately looked at the guy & told him that if he did that that i would then rip it right out of hands back & told him that i was in a horrible mood & to be careful with what he said next. he then kept running his mouth while i ignored his snide comments. he then asked me if i thought the patriots were going to win on Monday against the Texans. I told him that i don't know if we will bc the Texans look good and i then named all of these players from New England that were out for the game/season & all these different stats. he immediately apologized about his comments bc he didn't realize that i knew more about football than he actually did. he had underestimated my knowledge of football. he then started asking me to help him with his fantasy team bc he doesnt know any decent players in the nfl worth having. I asked him what qbs he had. His response: Tom Brady and Matt Schaub. I couldn't help but laugh b/c he was just making fun of TB 30 seconds earlier. He asked who he should start...My response was Matt Schaub. Of course Brady is going to play better than Matt but still. I told him that yeah Brady is sure to put up some points Monday night but with Gisele expecting any day now, that his mind is likely going to be somewhere else than the game.
I blew this man away with how much i knew about football in general.
Moral of this long ass story is don't doubt my knowledge of football just because i'm a new england fan and a girl. I know my shit. I could carry on a conversation for hours about football. When i'm not sleeping or working, I am literally on NFL.com, watching ESPN, on ESPN.com, Bleacher Report, Patriots.com, etc CONSTANTLY. My life has practically been nothing but football. Don't ever doubt me.
