This weekend, there's a big football game. Technically, I can't call it what it is due to copyright, etc, etc, so I won't. I don't particularly care for football. First of all, I don't understand it at all. Secondly, it bores me to no end and there are SO many more ways I'd rather spend my time.
However, the gentlemen I share my home with LOVE football. My oldest son has taken a particular interest and loves the Denver Broncos (even though we live deep in Patriots country). I have never seen such pure joy as the moment he realized his team was going on to the biggest game of the year.
I decided to make a football themed paper doll for this week. I went back & forth a bit about whether to do man, woman, or toddler set. I settled on a woman. There are a lot of female fans of the game and I wanted to represent that. Maybe I'll expand this and make a whole set.
It's the 50th anniversary game this weekend, so I included a jersey to commemorate that. I went with Broncos colors in honor of my little boy's love of the team. I went with a general football pattern instead of specific logos.
Anyway, I'll be cheering for the Broncos while Noah sleeps -- we'll record the big game so he doesn't miss out!
Superbowl Superbowl Superbowl! hahaha ~ man that's so obnoxious.
ReplyDeletelove the sheen on the jersey! this is a fun set even though, like you, i'm not into football (at least haven't been for the last 15 years).
but for your son's sake: go Broncos!
Ha! That was great :) Is it like Beetlejuice -- if you say Superbowl three times do you summon a demon ghost thingie of football games past?!
DeleteI went to school in Steelers country, I'm surrounded by Patriot die-hards, and I'm not sure I'm capable of caring less about football. But my boys love it.
Noah appreciates all the Broncos love :) He's an excited little boy!!
My boyfriend is a Broncos fan. He's also a huge Alabama fan, but college football is over for the moment. I've been learning to be supportive. I admit that I don't "get" football, but if he doesn't mind if I draw than I am happy to sit on the couch and watch with him. He's going to a superbowl party Sunday. I am not. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one who uses football games as an opportunity to catch up on art! Or genealogy. Either way, I don't actually watch the game. But the guys in my house like the company. I'm sure yours does, too!
