10 signs that you're a Football Addict

1) You can recall the last 20 matches you fav team played... in correct sequence and with corresponding scorelines

2) You mark football fixtures on your calendar 2 months in advance and try to schedule other activities around it

3) You check match kick-off times before committing to any weekend plans

4) Anytime is a good time to talk about football

5) Anyone is a good person to talk to about football

6) Asking me if I'm waking up to watch 3 am weekday matches seems a silly question. If they're playing, I'm watching

7) You check football news online >3 times a day and get annoyed when there are no new updates

8) The word "year" is replaced with "season" in your vocabulary

9) You like Fridays because The Star has an extra Football pull-out

and lastly, dedicated to my friends out there...

10) Your friends shake their heads in disbelief and start betting when your sudden interest in football will end

Hi Flo,
My daughter's bf is the ultimate (American) football fanatic. He stays at our place every weekend so we get lots of football talk and watching then. It is fun seeing his enthusium, it actually has rubbed off a bit on me. So now I know a little bit about football and can at times hold a conversation (argument?) with him on some point or another. It's a good way to pass the time:)
