I don't know about missing a gene, but I'm completely with you on football. My appreciation of the sport is roughly along the lines of "There are some men in uniforms running around on a large green field with a spheroid! ... I'm told this is culturally significant for some reason?"
I've got a friend coming over during the Super Bowl to hang out and watch stuff (probably favorite episodes of either Supernatural or Battlestar Galactica), while my husband goes to the Super Bowl party that her husband is hosting. Much as I hate to fall in so tidily along gender stereotype lines, there's no denying that we're all going to have a lot more fun this way.
