Some insightful discussion inthis post.

I agree 100% that communication is essential to a healthy relationship and to ensuring there is mutual respect. I rememebr watching the show LOST and just shaking my head at how drama was created because none of the characters were able to perform basic communication. I wondered whether this was common in society and shuddered to thinking if I acted that way in my marriage.

As an update. This weekend, I watched the game and my wife watched the MTV VMAs. But when I was freaking out in the PA winning pass to Jennings I called her in the room to see it and she gets excited because she know it is important to me. I howver did not get as involved when she told me about the Kayen West incident since I was so upset about the packer's O-line.

In terms of the philosophy that the husband and wife should always do their own thing, I think there is compromise. I believe that is important to plan to do things as a family and it keeps the marriage healthy.

The first principle is that you must not fool yourself, and you are the easiest person to fool - R. Feynman

My wife is like this too. Even things she honestly couldn't care less about will excite her if they excite me. She likes seeing me excited, if only because she typically reaps the rewards. 😉

Of course you do. Men with perfect legs and butts in tight pants . . . it's a no-brainer. :magnifyglass:

What I have learned in relationships is this: You have to have things in common with each other, things you enjoy doing together if you do not then most of the time you will lead separate lives. He does his thing and she does hers you never come together as a couple.

I would NEVER take something away from my spouse that he truly enjoys doing, so I would get in there and try to enjoy it with him its called compromise. You shouldnt have to work that hard in a marriage if its a happy union.

Football has cost me two relationships, though I suspect they were not that important as self-interest appeal (admittedly on both sides) was the order of play.

My obsession for the game is borderline unhealthy, from watching meaningless collegiate games to never missing a down for the Packers - atleast 14 hours of my day are football related (even at work, I have NFL network playing as white noise)

I guess I ask for too much - just understand me!

Did you have fight to arrange football days with your spouse?

Nope. When we were younger we may have fought but not about sports.
If you are fighting then maybe you need to give her a little more of your time. If she won't let you spend 3 hours watching a game she may be a little selfish and you are having problems other times than just on Sunday afternoons.

Does your spouse watch the game with you?

Usually but not always.

Or are you in your third marriage because Sundays are precious?
nope my 1st. If it was important enough to her I would give up watching the tv. I would give up my season tickets. All she would have to do is say so.

beast (3h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (3h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (4h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (5h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (5h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (5h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (5h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (5h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (6h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (6h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (6h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (6h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (6h) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (6h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (6h) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (6h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (6h) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (6h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (6h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (6h) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (6h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (7h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (7h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (7h) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (7h) : This might be the kill shot here

Mucky Tundra (7h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Philly DL has come to play

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night

Mucky Tundra (7h) : ok scratch that

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Game feels like last years Super Bowl: 49ers started off in control, moved the ball well but didn't have much of a lead to show for it

TheKanataThrilla (7h) : KC jumped and they call it on Eagles. WTF refs

TheKanataThrilla (8h) : If he was offside why did you let him pop the QB?

TheKanataThrilla (8h) : I like that Eagles are controlling time of possession so far.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : If the Eagles are going to win, this is how they do it: jump all over the Chiefs and don't let it turn into a close one

TheKanataThrilla (8h) : Bad throw created that penalty.

TheKanataThrilla (8h) : Amazed Philly got that hit to the helmet call.
