Does Will have a fantasy team? Because there is this thing The Men can do where they program their team into the TV, and the cable automatically gives updates on how their players are doing throughout the game. Technology is scary. And intrusive. I can’t check the cooking shows without getting scolded about missing an important play.

Glad your comments are turned back on. I haven’t had a chance to say “hi” in forever!

This is one of the many reasons why I’m thankful our HDTV broke.  We are no longer the prime football watching place in our group of friends.  And that we have hardwood floors.

I feel your pain!  This is year 2 of NFL Sunday Ticket!  DOn’t get me wrong, I LOVE the Colts, so I’m glad we have it because if not, we’d be watching the Titans every Sunday.  We hate the Titans!  It’s funny though because it’s like you were looking in my house!  Except it’s beer and not Dr. Pepper!  HAHA!  But the Rotel dip was right on

Ha!  That’s what you get for encouraging football! 

I feeel your PAIN though.  Basketball season is nuts like that for me.  Goooo Celtics.  Rah. Rah. Rah.

I waiver between wishing we had friends to invite over for football craziness, and thankful that we don’t because the idea of spending all of Sunday watching football doesn’t appeal to me at all.  I think I could handle it on College Football Saturday, though. 

Have a great week!

Ah - you describe it so well.  It kinda brings a tear (of joy) to my eye.

However, my version is slightly different.

I watch with a Glamour magazine on my lap - flipping thru and reading between plays.  Also, I ate a Lean Pocket and washed it down with some Cloudy Lite (what we call the generic of Crystal Lite).  Oh - and I painted my nails a nice dark brown since it’s after Labor Day and I was in the mood for the fall (I had a “harvest apple” candle burning which).  I had to be careful with my clapping, so as not to smudge my nails.  Still, I was spirited in my own way.

The Cowboys are tonight. And my fantasy team is going to win this week.  I love the fall.

It is ALWAYS during this time of year that I thank God that my husband is a complete and total nerd, and hence has no interest in sports whatsoever. I like watching the games more than he does, believe it or not! So my sympathies, really, because I can’t imagine what it must be like. Ugh!

I hope you are having a good week!  Check my blog

Oh Brittny!  The sports get togethers - my best friend’s husband watches and is a fanatic about practically every sport there is (except perhaps curling) and I can sympathize with ESPN providing a running background theme to your life.  It sounds like you have adapted so well though and partially made this love your own so you guys can share it.  Best wishes for the orange queso and Dr. Pepper....perhaps they wouldn’t notice if you switch it for hummus or white bean dip and clear seltzer?  Nah, I feel there is a gasp of horror from every sports-loving male in the U.S. as that suggestion flies out into cyberspace.

I am so glad we don’t have NFL Sunday Ticket! lol Craig wants every single sports channel there is. Yuck!

I think we need to get Will and Chris together.  IF we could have the dish, we would, but we can’y.  It’s un *cough* fortunate.  No I am not smiling.  I would NEVER smile because I can only watch 10.5 football games instead of 16. 
Shhhhhh....don’t tell Chris.
