About

Having a superficial interest, having a degree in English, and having attended college when her university did not have a football team clearly qualify Ms. Walker as a college football diletante. Worse yet, although she greatly admires athletic prowess, she is equally ignorant about other sports. The nuances of game or competition rules and strategies escape her. She frequently requires lengthy explanations related to penalties, scoring, conference politics, historic rivalries and the significance thereof.

However, in Ms. Walker's favor, she appreciates the camaraderie and consumption of adult beverages commonly associated with sporting events. Thus, she has been lured into the Bama famly by a highly ranked B/R college football writer and his artist wife. (Ms. Walker and the artist wife like to drink sparkling wine during games.)

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Based on appearance or accomplishment?

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Isn't it considered good form to name one's alma mater?

  • Favorite Coaches

    Who are the top ten richest?

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    How 'bout those long, long hours of televised baseball on Saturday afternoons in the heat of summer? Does anyone remember hearing Dizzy Dean sing "The Wabash Cannonball" when the game would drag on for inning after inning with nothing interesting going on?

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    In my freshman year of college (not as a University of Florida student), a date took me to the season's first Florida game. This was back when everybody dressed up (I mean seriously dressed up) for football games. It must have been 110 degrees F in the Swamp! On the shady side of the stadium. This is not an experience one easily forgets. Oh, and the Gators lost.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    According to the National Institute of Health and Human Development, approximately half a million vasectomies are performed in the United States each year. Multiple news sources have reported that the number of these procedures increases dramatically during March Madness. Is there a record for highest number of elective surgeries associated with an annual athletic event?

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mays, undeniably!

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Neither is as cute as Terry Bradshaw. (See what is meant about being a diletante? Totally superficial!)

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Like the river or the small, hyper dog breed?

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    As a native of a tropical climate, it is not easy to care about hockey.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Can Norteamericanos be expected to address this knowledgeably?

  • Federer or Sampras?

    I like remembering Arthur Ashe.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Oh, please!

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Mario Andretti. Well, it rhymes with Petty.

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Sorry. Can someone explain what sport they represent?

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    SEC as referring to the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Southeast Conference? I'll have to go with the Southeast Conference. The Securities & Exchange Commission are not winners in my opinion and certainly do not seem to play fair.
