Roger: Hey, Dave! Did you go to Bryan's Superbowl party?
Dave: Yes, I did. Bryan had a good party, but his wife Gail wasn't there, as she and their son Dale went to the mall that day, instead.

Dave: Well, she and Dale don't really like football a lot. I guess they are the typical football widow and football orphan.
