Then you are truely missing what makes the game great....

Emotion.

Quick story to this point. I was in Greensboro, NC this past weekend visiting with the in-laws for the holidays. We weren't expected back in Charlotte until about 5:00 Sunday afternoon, so I set the DVR before we left Saturday morning. My wife's family could give a poo about football, so I knew there would be no stress of someone telling me a score or something. Cell phone was off, their TV's were off, all was good. So at about 1:20, sitting down for Sunday lunch, my brother in law comes in and pats me on the shoulder and says "good news, Panthers are up 3-0." You can ask my wife, her family, anybody that was there....I almost got up out of my chair and killed the kid. And it wouldn't have hurt my feelings to do it.

I can not begin to describe the measures I will go to to preserve the unknown outcome of the Panther game when I have to watch it on DVR. It kills me to watch it, and know that the outcome is already decided, but it's what I do. I'll admit I'm a bit crazy, but I like to call myself a passionate fan. To each his or her own.

Just realized I have tickets for the Flyers-Leafs game in Philly (7PM) on the 10th. Sonofabitch! Don't even think it would be worth taking a mini-tv in as I probably couldn't get any TV reception anyway. Ballz. WTF am I gonna do. Not going to the hockey game isn't an option....I spent $250 on tickets because my wife has never been to the Wachovia Center for a game. Crap....why the hell didn't I think to check the playoff schedule before buying tix? If only we'd have held on against the Giants, we woulda ended up playing on the 11th.

It's one hockey game...I'm a DIEHARD Leafs fan.....but come on...sell the tickets...

Hate it for you, but as long as you don't ruin your hockey game worrying about the playoff game you're missing.... you'll be fine. No need to make this a lose/lose

working on it...she already has the sling software on her phone but the trial ran out...I'll buy it and test it out this week. Hopefully it works.

One word...

divorce.

Hehe....another reason for the list!

Hockey game will be fun especially if they win. We will win as well making it a great day. You can watch the game later knowing the outcome but still enjoying it. Your family will still be intact and you can watch us the next week with a free conscience and family support unless we are playing the Eagles then you might be divided.

Win-Win all the way around.

Would love to play the Eagles...only person in my immediate family that likes em is my 11 year old so no sweat there. Most of my relatives (including my Mom and everyone in my sister's family) are diehard Iggles fans.

Obviously yer not :D

No one cares about Hockey. They went a whole year without playing and no one cared watch the game!!!!!!!!!

I don't even know how this is a choice..football takes precedence over any other sport..

you didn't grow up in a town that loves hockey, right? hockey is on par with football to me.
