Water Cooler Humor

I have an ongoing battle with all the young men at work who are (barf!) Redskin fans. Over the course of last football season I had to learn to strike back creatively, so I started using the water cooler as a weapon.

I started by wrapping my Cowboys scarf around the cooler, just to literally rub it in their faces that my 'Boys are far superior to their 'Skins! Later in the season I would tape newspaper articles (always pro-Cowboys or anything poking fun at the Redskins) to the front of the cooler and hang my scarf, or a Cowboys necklace from the top to taunt them. There were days when they slunk past my desk to get some water with their heads hung low, eyes on the floor so they didn't have to look at me. These were my favorite days. :-)

After I bought my pink T.O. t-shirt with the slogan "Get Your Popcorn Ready!" on the front I taped it to the cooler on the days my favorite player, Terrel Owens, showed why he is a superstar. Like after catching a ball 20' over his head, balancing it on his helmet and running down the field into the end zone for a touchdown.

Today's water cooler looked like this:




I'm sorry to see him go.
