Back in 2005, shortly after getting married, I had a big argument with my wife about being able to watch football on Sundays. She did not understand why I had to watch every packer game on Sunday as opposed to just a couple every now and then. It took some serious reasoning to convince her of the importance of watching the Packers game.

What about the rest of you?

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

Does your spouse watch the game with you?

Or are you in your third marriage because Sundays are precious?

my husband is one of the lucky ones. i LOVE my football, baseball, & nascar. the only problem is - he's a queens fan...ugh! 😞

What remarkable fortune followed by tragedy, 4Pack. I guess in a way you are both rooting for the packers now though. You have just chosen the youthful team in its prime while he has chosen the hand-me-downs that the queens have.

How unfortunate. Do you have the power to convert him to the good side?

HELL NO

She watches just like me

She's pretty understanding. My hope is that some day she'll come to love watching football too.

To the wife's that don't understand why football:

It's 3 hours a week. OMFG. Give us 3 damn hours. lol

To answer the question, nope. I have no problem.. Shanna's awesome.. She has her hobbies as I do mine. It's called compromise. If you have a wife that has that problem.. I feel for you. lol

My wife wouldn't dream of denying me this little pleasure.

Actually, I can pretty much do whatever the fuck I want, whenever I want. I love my marriage. Precisely because I do have so much freedom, I rarely take advantage of it, though.

I was thinking back to how I got so lucky with my wife.. And I remembered back when we were first dating, I wasn't one of those zipper in the back type of boyfriends that was pussy whipped. I told her how it was, how I was, and how if she tried to eff it up, that she was taking the shoe leather express to her next relationship. She totally respected that and me, and I fell in love.

One thing I learned from her is how as much as she wants to be loved, I want to be respected. I think it's like that with most males/females.

I find I have to pick my battles with my wife. When it came to football, she did not understand why a sports game is so important.

Since then, we have managed to work out football Sundays.
