How important is it for ya'll that a dancer follows the latest sports?
For instance, I don't read the newspaper nor watch tv. I check out my news online and sometimes skim sports, but don't really follow football much or baseball except for basic stuff. I follow basketball a bit more...
Point is, when I do speak knowledgeably of current sports events, my customers seem impressed. Its not really that hard to read the sportspage or watch Sportcenter on occasion....
Plus, the clubs I work have all of those big plasma TVs and they always have some special events on sports nights, like Monday night football parties, etc......
So, how important is a dancers knowledge of sports during conversation?
This does not pertain to mileage or look, etc, just the above.
Thanks for feedback!![]()

I love Hockey, cuz they beat the crap out of each other.
NICE! I actually know a lot about sports and have had a guy tell me he was intimidated by it! (I'm on 2 Fantasy Football Leagues), but then I've also gotten a few dances by giving Fantasy Football advice.
For the most part though, I think a guy is used to talking sports with his friends and if the conversation between the guy and the dancer reminds him too much of his friends, it might be weird to get a dance from the girl.
For example, I tell lots of people, especially if they're from New England or NY about when I went up to NH and had people say "Oh, hi, so you're from New York - are you a Yankees fan?" in this accusing tone - totally if I'd said I was I wouldn't be spoken to anymore. People are quite amused by this, and by acknowledging the Rivalry I get "bonus points." I didn't have to know every play and such.
