TRICKIE NICKIES

Me: 35–14. I told you your team can’t catch me

Loving: Nahhhh, refs had it out for me. Rigged game

Soba: Bro, you dropped a pass and missed a block. Refs aint got shit to do with that

Me: He was stunned, that’s all. I can imagine playing against one of the best is intimidating

Loving: More stunned that you scored such a beauty. Smart, too

Soba: Right? My girl called her a smokeshow

Loving: Never expected it of our little Nikki boy

Me: She’s not mine

Loving: Bullshit

Soba: Where’d she sleep last night?

Me: In the hotel

Loving: Hm. Which room?

Me: Don’t worry about my room. I just hope your girl doesn't bail on you after that insane loss

Loving: She eased my pain. Twice

Soba: Sounds like the American dream

Loving: Bingo. Nothing more American than football and sex

THREE WISE WOMEN (SOMETIMES)

Sloane: So… how’s “fact-checking” in Houston going?

Olivia: What she means is… HAVE YOU TOUCHED HIM YET?

Me: Subtle, you two

Sloane: Don’t dodge. Spill. You got our hopes up once before. Don’t let us down now

Olivia: I swear if you say “it’s complicated,” I’m flying down there

Me: ...fine. We slept together

Sloane: ALL CAPS SCREAMING

Olivia: EXCUSE ME? Journalistic integrity WHERE?

Me: Gone. Buried. RIP. Do not send flowers

Sloane: Details. Now. How was it? Scale of 1 to lost my voice from screaming

Olivia: Don’t answer her. Answer me. Did he live up to the “Saint Nik” hype?

Me: If I say yes, will you both shut up?
