I don't pay attention to race baiting, but I like his cockiness. I particularly enjoyed his reaction after that NY Giants' player manhandled one of his teammates. It's football. They both get into the smack and he liked it that they did. Honest -- my style of playing games, but I tend to quickly forget the losses, so I can win three games, lose the rest and still remember only the three wins. Great selective memory. lol
My first argument with future-hubby wasn't so much an argument as finding out he absolutely hates receiving smack during a game. I didn't know. Talking smack in competition is what my family does. It is part of the competition. Who can do it the best.
My favorite smack is, "I'm letting you win to protect the fragile male ego. But, be prepared. I'm just making you feel confident until the last quarter of the game I'm about to win." (Hey, if I was any good, I'd probably have better smack. lol)
