I'm a bit younger than you ('89) and my girls are growing up in a world with more sports played by women with more attention paid to those women's teams. I know my girls know that I would rather watch them play in anything than watch ND or any pro team play and I suspect that you would say the same for your daughter. I make it a point, though, to follow all ND sports with the same enthusiasm and interest so as not to undermine my support of their sports and make them think I'm less invested in their success. But, then again, we don't make annual trips to South Bend just to see a game that isn't on the gridiron, so maybe I'm not really doing what I think I am. But I do agree with Curly1918 on this.
Just don't get me started on "Lady Irish"!
