If you’re a dumbfounded son, daughter, or spouse staring down Father’s Day with absolutely no idea what to buy the sports-obsessed man in your life, the NFL (his favorite) may have just bailed you out. Its new collaboration with Crate & Barrel skips the usual novelty-gift graveyard in favor of game-day-ready entertaining accessories he’ll actually appreciate, each one tailored to his allegiance of choice among the league’s 32 teams.

It’s catnip for die-hard fans. But since chances are you’re sharing a home with him, we’re pleased to report that this sports collaboration, ranging from dish towels to decanters, doesn’t require you to compromise the look of your living room – or wince of secondhand embarrassment when he cracks open a cold one from an objectively hideous logo-laden glass.

Now, he's hosting like a pro. These barbeque and bar essentials are among the few last-minute Father's Day gifts that spark a healthy spirit of competition between dads, grandads, and the sons hoping to outdo both.

Allow me to set the scene. It's Sunday. He wants barbecue and beer. Armed with a team-branded BBQ tool set and coordinating tumbler, he settles in to man the grill. Then, roughly 30 minutes before company arrives, he develops a sudden and very serious interest in the art of charcuterie – a direct result of owning a sporty acacia wood serving board. The boys arrive. They love the coasters. So much so, they actually use them.

This collection might be as much a gift to you as it is to him. Minimally, you’ll never have to look at another novelty necktie.

And even if he never grills a single burger or pours a drink from that decanter, he’ll proudly display it to rep his team. Which means that, unlike actual game days, your gift is pretty much guaranteed to win.
