Does your man pace the floor and shout at the TV when he’s watching a close game?Does he have a list of jinxes and rituals that he believes will impact the score?Does half of his wardrobe feature the logos of his favorite teams?If you answered “yes” to any of these questions you may have yourself a sports-obsessed guy.Ernestine Sclafani Bayless is a lot like you. She enjoys spending free time shopping, going to concerts, the movies, and the theater: pretty much anything other than watching sports. When she started dating and then married Skip Bayless, one of the most influential figures in sports media, something had to give. This book is about how she kept her relationship alive—and still going strong—while learning how to coexist with his “other woman” whom she’s come to know, live with, and put a name to: sports.“I’m pretty sure nobody watches sports more than I do. That means few if any relationships are as threatened by sports as ours is. But we have survived—even thrived—because of my wife Ernestine, who is NOT a sports fan. This book is about how she has pulled it off and how you can too.” —Skip Bayless
