Every football season, I fall into the same pattern. I buy tickets for all of the games, deck myself in orange, wake up for the 11 a.m. tailgates and cheer on my favorite team. 

Don’t be fooled by my gameday apparel and loud chanting with crowds, however. I do not know what is going on. There, I said it — so I’m not the sportiest girl on the planet, sue me. 

Whether I know what is going on or not, does it mean that I love my school any less than others? No. I have the same loyal spirit towards my school that you will find in die hard sports fans. So if you’re anything like me, take heart and remember: even the sporting world needs socialites. 

Check out these 10 signs that might affirm that you aren't the sportiest girl out there.  

1. You’re frequently the victim of your friends’ tweets that quote the questions you ask during sporting events. Sorry, I’m not sorry that that I don’t know the difference between a touchdown and a field goal…

2. Your favorite part of going to a sporting event is planning the outfit that you’ll wear. You may not know what’s going on, but you WILL look cute for all the pictures.

3. You try to get in on the sporty conversations but always end up backing off, out of fear of sounding like you won’t know what you’re talking about. (Hint: You won’t.)

4. You would be perfectly fine purchasing a cable package that didn't include ESPN, SportCenter, and all those...other channels?

5. You go to game-watching parties for two purposes: snacking and socializing.

6. Dodge ball Fridays in middle school were your personal hell. Actually, every PE class was hell.

7. You wouldn't mind tailgating through the entire game, but your friends always drag you in early so you can get good seats. (Ugggh, like it makes a difference.)

8. You have no idea who played in the Super Bowl this year. None.

9. People are shocked when you actually know what’s going on during a game.

10. You’ve been guilty of accidentally trying to get a group pic during a vital part of the game.

11. You have never played in an intramural game and delete any mass emails from your chapter with “intramural” in the subject line.

12. Your high school extracurricular activities included things such as choir, theater or dance team.
