"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Patriots or Eagles?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

was hoping patriots would lose, but since they got this far thru colts and steelers, they'll crush eagles.

Pats don't make mistakes

As much as I'd like to see the Eagles win it, I gotta expect the Pats to take it. They're like a machine: no turnovers, no screwups, steady and ready.

Pats by 11.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The Pats will crush the Eagles, Lets face it, Donovan McNabb is no Payton Manning, and the Eagle D aint as tough as the Steelers D. So Im gonna say the Pats will Dominate.

Pats baby

Though Donovan McNabb and the Eagles have fought hard to get to the Superbowl, it really is about the best team out there, and Belichick's Pats just find ways to win. In Bill We Trust!!
