What Do Sports and Marriage Have In Common?

In the game of baseball, you don’t want the other side to know what you’re doing in the game. In marriage, although you don’t want to keep too many secrets from each other, you still need to work at keeping a little mystery going just to make things interesting.
Football teams work at getting the ball into their endzones more than the other team does. They do it as a team, by working together. Football and marriage are very similar. You’ll get more done by working together instead of separately.
