Pearls & Grits

Gracious living (usually) in beautiful Historic Savannah

Who dat making a fashion statement?
Very likely due to the fact that we have both have fanatical, never miss a game, yelling at the TV sports loving fathers and brothers, my husband and I are not much for watching sports.  This year we made an exception, as John is a New Orleans boy, and watched the Super Bowl (after chowing down on that fried chicken).  We were pretty much guilted into it by John's mother, who after 40 years of complaining about his Dad's sports tendencies, has become the self proclaimed  High Priestess of Saints football and world's greatest fan.  We got an email this morning saying that she is currently dressing only in black and gold and has a donned a black hat and gold wig. At least it was a good game, and I must say I was a little surprised to see that football players still wear decent uniforms and look, well, the way professional athletes should.  I first saw signs of the demise in basketball with those long baggy shorts, then baseball players traded in those cute knickers for long baggy pants, even swimmers stopped wearing Speedos and wear some kind of full body thing. What's the world coming to and thank heavens for football players who still know how to dress!
