Welcome to my favorite series, The Guys Behind the Blog. You get to hear from me all the time, but it’s only once a month that you get to hear from my other half, Errik. This month he’s spilling the beans on what many consider man’s favorite subject…sports!
My friends from The Peony Project host this fun link-up each month, and it’s been such a fun way for you to get to know my biggest fan, Errik. Let’s hear what he has to say this month!
1. What sports did you participate in as a child? What sports did you watch growing up?
FINALLY!! Sports questions. I played in little league baseball a couple years. Pitcher and third base. In high school I played football. I played guard, defensive end and on special teams. It’s fun to talk to people around here about high school football in South Dakota because my school played 9 man football. The schools in the area were not very big so we got to play with 9 guys on a 80 yard field. It worked out prettty well because we got to play both sides of the ball. The one other thing I did as a senior was run cross county. I don’t know what possessed me to do it, torture myself I guess.
My husband said pizza but didn’t explain why. I guess your guy did explain it well – it goes with any sport/season. As for the last question, tell him to check out Ben Watson of the New Orleans Saints; he fits all of those criteria. It seems a lot of guys are choosing for a team to go against the Patriots.
Thanks for the tip on Ben Watson…I’ll have him check him out. My hubby usually cheers for the Patriots, but the Vikings are his fave. Have a great weekend!
Cross country runners are so admirable! Now that’s something I don’t think I would ever be able to do lol
Me? Never…I have enough trouble running across the yard after my dogs. LOL 🙂
