Are You Too Competitive With Your Guy?

by Dean Chandler

Sports can be a bonding experience. Watching sports is a great way to pass a few hours together without having to pay any attention whatsoever to “togetherness.” But even with both teammates playing at their selfless best, relationships are a three-legged race run over a mine-?lled obstacle course while wearing ?int-rock corduroys soaked in gasoline. In a word: volatile. The last thing you need to bring along is a blowtorch. One bad tennis match, and BOOM!, the rackets go flying—and so do the championship rings.
