The scene is the dinner table.

Husband: "I just love this tournament, I mean just think... Only one team will win six games and each game will be against another great team. A worthy champion if you ask me. Upsets, emotion, great basketball. No wonder they call it March Madness! I think North Carolina can win it all but my dark horse is Villanova! Philadelphia tough I always say."

Wife: "I don't care, pass me the butter."

Husband: "I don't even like the fact that Superman is fighting with Batman... I mean haven't they always been on the same side? Truth, Justice and all of that? Besides Batman has no powers, I mean he can fight and has a cool utility belt and a great car and even a cave but Superman is... are you ready? INDESTRUCTIBLE! He can fly around the world so fast that he can change time! He has X RAY vision and can breathe underwater and in SPACE! I'll tell you Batman better have some Kryptonite in that belt of his and what kind of a lame screenplay would that be?"

Wife: "I couldn't care less...Eat your Brussels sprouts!"

Husband: "I downloaded the new Joe Bonamassa today. Man that dude can rip it. Blues, Rock, Vocals... The guy is a guitar stud!"

Wife: "I don't know who that is... We need to take the cats to the vet tomorrow!"

Husband: " I know that Spring Training scores are meaningless in the big picture but The Phillies are winning in Clearwater and with a young team this is a positive trend. I mean they sucked last year and now they are rebuilding with youngsters, you know kind of like what the Astros and Royals did with much success I might ad! Anyhow engraining more of a winning culture is a good thing going into the season so I am really happy with what is going on in The Grapefruit League this year."

Wife: "I only care about The Cubs!"

Husband: "I can't wait for the DRAFT! I hope the Titans can shore up that O Line for Our young QB! Of course they could trade that number one and get several good players. God knows they need help but I am liking the moves they are already making especially with the coaching staff. I think I am optimistic going forward!"

Wife: "Oh I meant to tell you... Something is dead under the back deck... You need to check that out."
