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:

They dont all have great butts. LOL

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.

dfosterf (1h) : Feelin' pfowish can't find the sun. No big deal, will drag a laptop out when the time comes

Zero2Cool (1h) : if you're on mobile, open the menu and its the "sun" icon

dfosterf (2h) : Can't find the toggle, lol

dfosterf (2h) : I can find that the Microsoft lady rep for Titletown Tech is the philanthropy boss for the entire Microsoft corporation, but. .

Zero2Cool (2h) : There's a toggle for light/dark theme. Super easy.

dfosterf (2h) : The white background beta was hard to read, especially the quotes

dfosterf (2h) : Hopefully the color scheme remains the same

dfosterf (2h) : *Friday*

dfosterf (3h) : 100 million would be 539 million as of Fridsy

dfosterf (3h) : Heck, they could have taken a hundred milliion and invested in DAVE inc. last year (semi random, humor, but real)

dfosterf (3h) : Beer brat and ticket is where the money comes from

dfosterf (3h) : The 40th is Titletown Tech itself. This is a pet project of both Ed Policy and Mark Murphy

Zero2Cool (3h) : New site coming along nicely. The editor is better than what we have here. Oh yeah!

dfosterf (3h) : No profit that I know of. 0 for 40

dfosterf (3h) : The woke reference has to do with the makeup and oftentimes objectives of the companies they invested in

packerfanoutwest (3h) : beer and brats woke? say whom?

beast (3h) : I don't want to get into politics, but how is, beers and brats considered to be "woke"? Food is food...

beast (3h) : That being said, I'm not saying all 100% should be that way, but not surprised if majority are Wisconsin based

beast (3h) : And if everyone has heard of them, then it it probably has less growth potential and less community based

beast (3h) : Well isn't the investing person supposed to invest the money?

dfosterf (4h) : I swear if I were to discover that one of them has invented a virtue signalling transmitter I will not be surprised, lol

dfosterf (4h) : 39 companies so far that I bet no one has ever heard of.

dfosterf (4h) : -Not saying woke, but should- borderline philanthopist venture capital excercise

dfosterf (4h) : Well for one, they are pouring resources into Title Town Tech. Investing beer, brat, hot dog, ticket money into what is pretty much...

beast (10h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?
