Dear Mom
I do not want to talk to you on the phone about this but I know it's inevitable.
You will call me at some point this weekend and you will say most excitedly "GUESS WHAT BETTINA. THE BROWNS BEAT THE STEELERS." Then you will proudly tell me how many times Big Ben got sacked. And smugly announce how you really don't think the Steelers are good any more and they can kiss the playoffs goodbye.
YOU'RE RIGHT YOU'RE RIGHT YOU'RE RIGHT
And then you will talk about how great the Browns are even though everyone knows that's not true and I will have to "mmm-hmm" for 15 minutes in feigned agreement while silently gritting my teeth.
Since I have created this conversation publicly on the internet can we please not have it in real life?
Love,
Your Daughter.
