Another College Blog

Today was supposed to be about football, camaraderie, and perhaps a few laughs over beers. Instead, it turned into a day of personal humiliation for me and all Bears fans. If you've followed this blog for any length of time, you know I can only watch football wearing a cheerleading uniform. The game itself was a disaster. It's the same old Bears though this year was supposed to be different. More than just about any other fan, the cheerleading thing give me a real stake in the Bears doing well. This one was a bit different because we had the girls over so there were 4 girls plus Fiona watching with me and of course the girls loved watching me do cheers. Fortunately, both offenses sucked so I didn't have to cheer too often.  

  So Mia got her wish and with my Mom's money, I was able to buy a replica of an actual Las Vegas Raiders Raiderette uniform.  It's really embarrassing and it's making me wish for the costume I used to wear for football games as it was more of a high school cheerleader style and this is much sexier.  I also have no love for the Raiders and have to wear it for Bear games which doesn't make a lot of sense. Making things worse, wow did the Bears stink on Sunday.  I hope things improve or I might have to say no thanks, I'll pass on watching the Bears and dressing like a cheerleader.  

  The girls have declared I have taken my best cheerleading picture yet.  I can't believe I have to dress like this before every single Bears game.  As you can see in the background, the girls have done some redecorating to our room.  I'm sure you'll get a whole photo spread.  It's so girly!! I'm kind of pissed at David, who agreed to it, if they didn't make it over the top.  Well, now he has a Girl Power poster right over his bed. Have fun explaining that to any girls you bring home.  My side is even worse. They actually tied me up so that I couldn't interfere and I had to sit there and watch them redo our room.  Mia has gotten as good at tied as Allison or Ashleigh. They actually brought rope with just in case I wasn't cooperative.  They also made me and David go out as a couple this weekend.  David hasn't even had to wear a pair of panties, and they have him totally under their thumbs too. I think I stand up to them more than they do....

 So the Bears lost a real heartbreaker tonight. We came within inches of winning and I don't know how I feel about it.  We're going to be terrible this year so the worse we are, the more likely we are to get a good draft pick. Still, it was heartbreaking. The other problem is that I'm only allowed to watch the Bears if I wear a cheerleading outfit, plus full makeup, and the damn bow in my hair.  The problem is this game was on Thursday night.  Something that never happened on Sunday, we had company during the game.  Even worse, they wouldn't leave.  I wound up having to hide in the bathroom for 20 minutes with the shower on.  I missed the Bears lone touchdown because of it. I know the girls are having a lot of fun at my expense, but sometimes this really does suck.

  I have been dying for the NFL to start, but in order to watch the Bears game today, I had to agree to shave my legs, let them do my nails and makeup for the day, post a selfie of me smiling and wearing Ashleigh's old cheerleader uniform. I could complain, but I wanted to see this game enough to do it. The only thing that's driving me crazy is Dave and I are watching in the room and he keeps looking over at me like I'm crazy.
