« on: October 21, 2007, 07:51:47 PM »
hello fellow chrome domes.....just wondering... as i sit here hanging out with u guys at the sly form while watching & going back & forth 2 the football game & the american league playoff game.  does the wifey, gf, significant other watch sports with u?

i'll start:  no...unfortunately the wifey doesn't watch my sports with me. :'(  in fact she is in the other room, watching something else.  the only sporting event, that she watches with me is the super bowl.  so.... how 'bout u?  what's your story?

 :*))  My wife usually ignores whats on the TV and reads.  Until I go to bed, then she watches her chick stuff.

My wife is more of a sports fan than I am.  So I guess the answer is yes.  My oldest son is the biggest fan in our house so it's one of us watching it with him.

The wife will go to live games with me, but rarely watch it on TV.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

On the rare occasion but overall no unfortunately :'(

When I was pregnant and had TIME we watched US football together, only because the game was explained properly.

As if i have time to watch sports now!?!! Not when America's next top model is on!  :*)) :*)) :*))

Overall I don't enjoy watching sport on TV. 

If I were there live....different story, a baseball game would be very cool!

Neither of us make a huge point of keeping games on the TV......unless of course the Rockies are in the World Series. O0  Then, yes, we both watch.

Love to take the fam on the train up to Coors / Invesco field, Pepsi Center, etc. for live stuff.

Sports are a big part of the Schro household, and that includes watching sports. I usually don't watch sports unless one of my teams are involved (Oakland A's, Oakland Raiders, Golden State Warriors, San Jose Sharks). The Lovely Mrs. Schro will kick back and watch games with me, as will our kids. Heck, she even enjoys watching golf on TV with me.

Damn, I guess I'm pretty lucky.

Sports aren't really a big thing at my house. We will watch the Super Bowl together. I do watch the World Series though. And, if it is on a channel that we get, I'll watch the Nextel Cup Series races.

I don't root for a particular driver, its just neat to watch and the crashes are usually pretty interesting. Usually, it is just on in the background as we do our sort of usual Sunday afternoon house cleaning.
Life has three aspects: Paradox, Humor, and Change.

Paradox: Life is a mystery; don't waste time figuring it out.
Humor: Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure
Change: Know that nothing stays the same.

I'm lucky.  My wife and both kids love sports.  We watched every pitch of the Red Sox game together last night.   O0

The Herron household is not really into to watching sports on TV (except for the Cowboys).  My wife never watches with me, but I don't watch the Man Hater (LifeTime) channel either.  I guess it evens out.

 ;D ;D ;D

Yes, the same movie over and over -- different title, different character names, same basis premise -- men are despicable low-life scums who beat their wives/girlfriends, cheat on them, and sometimes murder them.  Sorry if I offended anyone, but that is the general gist of it whenever I have watched one of these with my wife.  She even admits it too.
