Howard: Sheldon knows football? I mean Quidditch, sure, but football?

Sheldon: I grew up in Texas. Football is ubiquitous in Texas. Pro football, college football, high school football, pee wee football... in fact, every form of football except the original, European football, which most Texans believe to be a commie plot.

Leonard: Sheldon, please teach me football, it will be fun! Sheldon: That's exactly what my father said: "Come to the games! Watch the games!". Week-end and week-end, to the time I was five until I ran off to college. Longest seven years of my life. I really love this show!
