Football Education

Anya: "Mom, we need to watch that basketball game in February."
Me: "Okay, what basketball game . . . March madness?"  As soon as I said it, the March part of March madness kind of gave me a hint that it isn't in February.  Sports that involve balls are not really my specialty.

Anya: "Yeah, the one where the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawkes are playing?"
Me thinking, okay, that is not basketball, pretty sure, I remember the Denver Broncos and they are a football team.

Me: "Oh yeah, the Super Bowl. How do you know about the Super Bowl?"
Anya: "From class." Great, GA public education at it again.
Anya: "We all had to choose which team would win and we made a graph." Phew, that's better.
Me: "Who did you choose?"
Anya: "The Denver Broncos."
Me: "Why?"
Anya: "They have a better quarterback and they are horses."
Me: "Yeah, what is a seahawk anyway? How do you know they have a better quarterback?"
Anya: "Ms. M. said so and the quarterback is all that matters."  I guess we will see.
