I have A Whole Other Ball Game: Women's Literature on Women's Sport on my shelf.  I can't be the only one out there with a sport-obessed sweetie (no really - her ph.d is on sociology of sport...)  This is  a great book!  Any takers?

Just wanted to tell you - you're not the only one with a sport-obsessed sweetie.  Mine just doesn't happen to be much of a reader

Well, at least I'm spared that!  I can tell you that she loves my homoerotic commentary...

Hi my partner not women as much sports in general, both college and NFL seasons....... She is a Nitty Loin alumi and a Seahawks fan....... Then there is Baseball and loves Volleyball but doesn't  have the time for it.....She should have taking up being a commentator..She will say it, then the commentator will say the exactly the same thing word for word... !!!!  I just smile :)
