Let’s get ready for some football!
August 21, 2007It’s that time of year again when the men-folk will be glued to the TV on Sundays, Mondays and sometimes Thursdays. I was just talking to one of my friends telling her that now that football season has started, if we don’t go to the 10am service at church, then we won’t go because hubby refuses to miss any of his games. We have the NFL Sunday ticket and he’s glued to the TV from 12:30pm until midnight every Sunday.
She was amazed that I let hubby watch all day like that and said she makes her hubby use TiVo. WTF?! I told her she better not ever complain about her hubby because I don’t know any other man on the planet who would agree to watch games after the fact. That man deserves a medal. LOL.
She’s also not quite pleased at having to spend a weekend being a cheesehead. That’s right, they’re going to the frozen tundra to see the Packers play. His dream, her nightmare. I can’t wait to see the pictures.
So folks, does football reign supreme at your house? If so, how do you handle if one person DOESN’T love the sport?
Lord yes, football is king in our home. I can only deal sporadically though. I may watch a quarter of a game here and there, otherwise I retreat to the bedroom and watch my shows. Oh and don’t let me come into the room and change the channel during a game while he takes an occassional nap or two. It’s like he has something implanted in him that makes him wake up and say “Hey, I was watching that!” lol
I just try and let him have that time since it is something he truly enjoys.

Well we’re not married yet but The Boy has already warned me that I’d better be prepared to make myself scarce on Sundays. I told him I’m not having it for Sundays, Mondays AND Thursdays however lol
I don’t mind watching a game but I can’t park it and watch all day like he can. I’m thinking Sundays will be my Barnes & Noble day.
