Is the love of your life in love with sports?  There is nothing more romantic than receiving something that is ?you? all over.  He?ll like that you understand him and put some real thought into his gift.  Try these ideas for gift giving to bring out the romantic side of your sports fan.

A sports fan is a guy?s guy.  He loves to watch all sorts of sports and we aren?t just talking about the season?s final title games.  He watches all season long even if his team is losing.  This kind of sports fan deserves only the best.

1. Sports paraphernalia.  What is the sports fan without his accessories?  Even an armchair sports fan needs a beer helmet.  If he doesn?t drink beer he can use soda, water or any other beverage he enjoys.  Included in this are those #1 fingers in his favorite team colors.  For the extreme fan, give them body paint to show their true colors in the living room or at a game.
2. Sports logos.  You know he is a fan, but he wants all of his buddies to know it too.  He will get a kick out of telling them that his wife bought him all that stuff.  A huge logo on the wall in ?his room? will be the first thing they see when they enter.  Life-sized posters of their favorite player or a cardboard cutout by Fathead would thrill him.  Another great idea is a flag for the yard sporting his favorite team?s insignia.
3. Photo magic.  Do some photo retouching to bring your sports fan into the picture.  Take some pictures of your beloved and his friends or alone at home all dolled up in his sports gear.  Mesh the photos with pictures of his favorite players to give the illusion that he was in the publicity shots.  It might seem a bit corny but you have to admit it is oh so cute.  Blow the pictures up and frame them for him. 
4. Sports package on cable television.  No sports fan can see every game on regular television.  Surprise him with a subscription to satellite or cable television?s sports package.  He can watch every game played by his favorite sports team all season long.
5. Immortalize his memories in a scrapbook.  This gift will take a bit of planning and preparation, but it will mean so much to him.  Collect all of his ticket stubs, newspaper clippings, and other souvenirs that he?s picked up at the games.  Put them in a scrapbook for him with dates and places.  Whenever he wants, he can look back at the season and remember the good times.
6. A bank for his money.  I don?t know about you, but I can?t stand finding loose change in the cushions and on the floor.  So, how can we resolve this problem?  Give him somewhere to put it.  This is no ordinary piggy bank though.  He will be dressed up in his best sports jersey.  You can even find various kinds of banks with team logos already on them too. 
7. A year?s subscription.  Let him read about each new development in sports with a subscription to Sports Illustrated or another favorite sporting magazine.  Each month he can read and keep up with what?s new in his favorite sport or with his team.  Best of all, it will come right to his door and he didn?t have to pay for it.

There are plenty of sports fans, but only one like your special man.  Tailor your gifts to his personality and you can?t go wrong.
