Circle the Correct Answer:
Wife:
Why do you cheer for that (team, guy, side)? You know (they are, he is, it is) going to lose.
Husband:
You don't know that. (the Chicago Cubs, Bill Murray, Satan) could win this.
Wife:
Yeah, one round. But you know they won't make it to (first base, first base, heaven). I mean, I can basically guarantee (their, his, its) fans are going to be either really bored or really depressed way before the (playoffs, end of the first half hour, Armageddon). They'll be leaving the (bleachers, theater, world) halfway through.
Husband:
Well, it's more than just winning and losing. It has a lot to do with sticking to your guns, being committed. It's about loyalty.
Wife:
Or pride.
Husband:
Okay, okay, miss mainstream. Did it ever occur to you that it could be about principles? Shhh! Wait for it, wait for it..... Oh! (They, He, They) almost had that in the bag!
Wife:
I wish you'd just put less effort into a losing cause, it always puts you in a funk afterwards.
Husband:
Aaaaand.... Denial! Honey, did you see that?
Wife:
And during. I mean really. Do you even remember that there's anything else going on? Like that (bake sale, bra burning, bake sale)? It's tonight you know.
Husband:
Wife:
Perfect. I'm glad we had this conversation.
