Listening Day 8



<Cam> I got a few things for the party.

Is Lily ready to go?

<Mitchell> Yeah, she's ready.

<Cam> What's wrong?

<Mitchell> I'm just really worried about CJ Hightower, with the bad ankle. I don't know how he's going to run his corner routes.

<Cam> What did my boyfriend just say?

<Mitchell> Listen, I heard what you said, and I thought, yes, I should try to learn more about football.

<Cam> That is very mature of you.

<Mitchell> I figure if football fans can learn it, how hard can it be?

<Cam> That's very elitist of you.

<Mitchell> I'm taking baby steps here, all right? I'm actually looking forward to it. 'Cause it's not just the game. It's the bands and the drama and the... the pageantry...

<Cam> Don't forget about the team mascots.

<Mitchell> They wear ascots?

<Cam> No, "mascots," with an "m." That could have been very embarrassing.(m이 모음 사운드 이기 때문에 an)

Am I straight?

<Mitchell> I am not sure what you are right now.
