Date Idea: Cheer on a National Sports Team
Erin Andrews Says Potential Partners Have to ‘Compete’ With Her Dad
If you ask Erin Andrews about her place in the pantheon of women’s sportscasters, she will graciously credit the ladies who came before her. However, there’s no doubt that she is a trail blazer in sports broadcasting. She has gained notoriety and admiration for her work ethic, knowledge, and natural on-camera abilities. All of this, she says, is part of being an “unapologetically strong woman.” Recently, Lori Bizzoco had the chance to chat with Erin about her new career path, touting her father’s influence as a main proponent of pushing her as far as she’s come. Further, she says, her father stands as a standard for when she’s dating. “He [her father] is a strong man by my side, and I think that’s why I can’t find anyone on the other side yet because they have to compete with my old man!”

Date Idea: Try an Unusual Sport
By Amanda Martin
Get out of your comfort zone this weekend by trying a unique sport with your other half. Summer is the perfect time to be adventurous. It’s warm outside and there are a variety of activities that can keep you and your partner learning something new.
For example, you can act like cupid and shoot arrows during an archery lesson. Or, spend time in the country and fire up some heat at a shooting range. You can make a game out of either of these activities and whoever wins gets to pick a romantic location for lunch. Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture these very special moments.
New Couple: Are Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis Dating?
When beautiful women claim they love a guy with a sense of humor people often scoff, thinking that looks matter much more. However, Jason Sudeikis has proven the theory true with his ex-girlfriend January Jones and current fling Olivia Wilde. While single, Wilde had been linked to stars such as Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper, but this time could be the real deal. Wilde and Sudeikis were recently spotted when they went to a University of Kansas Jayhawks basketball game, which is a team that Sudeikis considers his own, according to Hollyscoop. To show her support, Wilde even sported a KU beanie with a fuzzy ball on top.

Women Have Fun Talking About Sports on ‘WhileTheMenWatch’
By Andrew Pryor
To every woman who’s ever gone to bed early on a Sunday night during playoff season, thinks a “pick-and-roll” is something people do when there’s no Kleenex around and that a “buttonhook” is a nifty solution for a torn shirt–know this: You are not alone.
Lena Sutherland and Jules Mancuso, two long-distance best friends and self-proclaimed “sports widows,” found that they had a lot in common when it came to sports. They realized this one day while talking on the phone while their husbands were engrossed in a big January football game. They chatted about their opinions on different sports, how hot the players were and how they’d always been interested in knowing just what a “sacrifice fly” could possibly mean. While talking this over, they came up with the concept of a show that would cater to other women whose husbands are married to the game. Thus, While The Men Watch was born.
Celebrity Couples You Just Might See at a Sporting Game
By Whitney Baker
Spending a lazy afternoon at a ball game can be the perfect casual date — and celebrity couples seem to think so, too. Sometimes, celeb sightings at a sporting event can be as entertaining at the game itself. There may even be as much action off the court as there is on it.
So the next time you attend a sporting event — whether it be hockey, basketball or baseball — keep your eyes open for the famous duos below:
1. Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher: In February, Underwood’s hockey-playing hubby was traded from the Ottawa Senators to the Nashville Predators. Shortly after, Fisher moved into his wife’s Brentwood, CA, home (and into her closet), and for the first time during their marriage, the newlyweds settled in the same city. Fans can rest assured that, once the hockey season starts up again in October, Underwood will be at as many home games as her hectic schedule allows.

Melissa Malamut Discusses Her Guide to Loving Sports
By Jenna Barbieri
With the Superbowl right around the corner, people all over the country are wearing their lucky jerseys and making their usual party arrangements, while others are looking up rare diseases to use as their newest excuse not to attend. To those in the second category, the thought of a room full of crazy fans screaming about things they don’t understand is a living nightmare.
