FB Timeline and Saturday Six

For those who don't like Facebook's Timeline and are looking for a silver lining in all this, I have good news: None of your comments and likes on other people's posts show up on your Timeline, like they do on your wall. Whee!

Remember though, depending on the person's privacy settings, they can show up on the ticker and will likely show in the news feeds of mutual friends, and will always show on that person's wall. So don't go all crazy commenting and liking questionable things.

Patrick's Saturday Six

1. How often did you attend football games — or any kind of sporting event — from your high school when you were a student?
I attended almost all home football games, as did most of my friends, even though at the time we were typically battling Pearland HS to avoid last place in the district.

2. How often did you attend football games — or any kind of sporting event — from your college when you were a student?
I attended every home football game and a few away games when I was in college. I had the all-sports pass, and we went to tons of basketball and baseball games as well. I went to a few volleyball and softball games over the years.

3. Since graduating either, how many games have you attended?
I went to my high school's Homecoming football game when I was a freshman in college. That's about it. We went to three A&M football games over the years until last year, when we got season tickets and attended all the home games. We'll keep those tickets again this year. I have also been to a couple of volleyball matches and one men's basketball game at A&M since grad.

4. If you had to choose any sport to really get into, which sport would you choose and why?
Other than football? Probably soccer. I like watching fast-paced games where there are relatively few scoring opportunities- ones where you can really stand up and cheer when a team finally makes a goal!

5. If you had to choose any particular team to follow, which team would you choose and why?
Houston Texans. My hometown team! I haven't been following NFL football for years, but I have so many friends from home who post about the Texans on Facebook every week that I started watching them this season.

6. Your prediction: Who’s going to win this year’s Super Bowl?
Giants
