Kevin is an LA Lakers fan, and always has been.  Although I had no idea about this in high school, it became very apparent when we were dating.  And once we were married, he had already sucked me into his world.  In fact, when we lived in Utah, we would go watch the Jazz play whenever the Lakers came to town.  It was a blast – except the time I was very pregnant with Lily and our seats were at the top of the Delta Center.  Image0

Kevin even taught me about all the players (which is how he sucked me in, by the way), and it really came in handy talking to the boys in my 4th grade class.  The first gift he bought for Lily was a Laker's bib, and he used to put his Lakers basketball in her baby swing sometimes.  Did I mention that he was a fan?  Lily and Derek already know how to shout, "Go Lakers!"  It is pretty fun.

I know that my husband has me well trained, which is what brought this post on in the first place.  I just got home from a Young Women's activity, and he had this video up on the computer for me to watch.  The greatest part about it, was that I not only understood what it was talking about, but I really enjoyed it.  I guess even though I don't watch many of the games with him anymore, Kevin has trained me well.  I am a Lakers fan, through and through :).

    Yep. I like them lakers. Yep I do. Did I also mention I’m a Yankees fan? Yup. I like all the teams people love to hate. Oh well! The Lakers are from here originally, which I’m sure you know. After all, how do you think they got their name?!?

    Never cared for the Lakers. I was always a Bulls fan. Sorry! ๐Ÿ™‚ These days, I have no idea who plays for who anymore. Plus there’s so many new players.

    You are so sweet to get into since you now Kevin cares about it so much. I sort of gloss over — even when I’m trying really hard to pay attention. It’s like it’s an instinct.
