re: This is a layup that the special kid on your 5th grade elementary team misses

A guy at the bar was going off on the wnba the other day. Knew racial statistics, sexual preferences of players, contacts, teams/players names. Could even recite players' media quotes.

I told him I've never met a wnba fan before and how impressed I was at his knowledge of the league and his passion for the players. Told him I'm a football fan, but I love that he found a sport/league to get him through the summer.

For some reason he took offense at my compliment.
