Room with the big TV for game watching only! Another room with a smaller TV (kitchen) for watching and chit chatters. The message is pretty well understood...if you want to talk about your baby, take it to the kitchen!

cougar_chick1

9/3/15 10:56am

Who cares. Guys don't worry about that crap.

titlecoug

9/3/15 10:57am

or tell your husband to worry about it since he invited them...you are watching

nashty

9/3/15 11:01am

Your husband invited them. He gets to play host while you enjoy the game

buhler08

9/3/15 10:58am

I am sure he would love to play dress up with them while cougar chick and

franklyvulgar

9/3/15 10:56am

You can even "pre-apologize"

Tricky

9/3/15 12:18pm

Simple answer. One room for the game, another rom for chit-chat.

boogers

9/3/15 10:57am

salads and fruit in the chit chat room. meat in the game room

johnnycarson

9/3/15 10:57am

not quite.

boogers

9/3/15 10:59am

So let them entertain themselves.

Kerbouchard

9/3/15 10:57am

My wife tried to get me to go to her parents house to watch the game. No thanks.

WhyKnot

9/3/15 10:57am

All it takes is one really big four letter word scream at the tv

WhoisJohnGalt

9/3/15 10:57am

That's my approach and it usually is unforced and very natural

fulano

9/3/15 11:20am

Seasoned pro.^^

Hoosier Cougar

9/3/15 11:22am

Yewt straight!

fulano

9/3/15 11:38am

Does it ever come out in Portuguese? Not that they have many with 4 letters.

Hoosier Cougar

9/3/15 1:00pm

I've had the same trouble in the past with a couple who watch games with us.

Belboz

9/3/15 1:09pm

Not his fault.

kimchicoug

9/3/15 10:57am

It's your marital responsibility to keep those women out of the TV room.

Thunder Buddy

9/3/15 10:58am

Have a depth chart handy for all of them.

whirl

9/3/15 10:59am

Ask 'em if they can pop the nachos in the microwave and bring them down when

SouthernCoug

9/3/15 11:00am

pop /= poop

Hinta

9/3/15 11:02am

what if they're utah fans?

johnnycarson

9/3/15 11:04am

If they can poop nachos, they really have a talent

Hinta

jvquarterback

9/3/15 12:34pm

Should I have said "poop the nachos in the microwave"? Confused.

SouthernCoug

9/3/15 11:09am

No. You did right.

Hinta

9/3/15 11:20am

That is a sticky social situation. I would just make it known upfront,

Banjo Blues

9/3/15 11:02am

I've tried that but they don't seem to get it.. Then I usually end up looking at

cougar_chick1

9/3/15 11:07am

Sorry to hear that. Good luck. That sucks.

Banjo Blues

9/3/15 11:26am

Does your husband know how lucky he is? HCBW on CB and able to post w/gifs

Q-grr

9/3/15 12:03pm

Plus his wife looks like Jennifer Morrison. But I guess that's average for HCBWs

frontrowcougar

9/3/15 12:10pm

Is your Football TV in the same room that the girls are sitting in?

CougarinOZ

9/3/15 12:45pm

Our entire basement is a very large and open "man cave"

cougar_chick1

9/3/15 1:16pm

You could play the "Super Hostess" Card.

CougarinOZ

9/3/15 2:24pm

My buddy who I get season tickets with had to bring

PolarisPrime

9/3/15 1:57pm

Set up a fun list of activities for Non football fan wives to do during the game

RunningQB

9/3/15 11:06am

That's actually not a bad idea, and maybe one to keep in mind for all of us.

jayriggity

9/3/15 11:14am

Man, and all those months I had no idea I was on a trip. I thought it was a

PGVikingDad

Sooooo...you're married, then?

PGVikingDad

9/3/15 11:09am

You may have to punish him

TNT

I totally hear you. One of my buds invited his fiancee to watch a game at my

Almaden Cougar

they are probably less excited about it than you

BlueFrog

Place a sign on your front door -

This is a Mormon phenomenon. Most dudes don't bring the wives.

Dr MoBYU

duct tape...

Bee Chunder

9/3/15 11:29am

So here's what we do...

Cyclogist

9/3/15 11:38am

This is easy. Find a friend who likes football, go watch the game at their house

Y2k

9/3/15 11:45am

Call the wives and tell them you are throwing a lingerie party while the boys

RC Vikings

9/3/15 11:42am

I like the way you think!

WhoisJohnGalt

9/3/15 11:43am

A bridal shower?

Y2k

9/3/15 11:46am

Bad idea! What if they went for it? I might even choose that over a BYU game!

8theU

9/3/15 12:32pm

Get "sick" and watch the game in your bedroom

8theU

9/3/15 12:33pm

The correct answer. Buy two tickets to the game and a flight to Lincoln.

Y2k

9/3/15 11:48am

You might even be able to set up a gofundme.

Y2k

9/3/15 11:57am

Set up a table in another room with scrap booking, crafts, and other activities

NVCougar

9/3/15 11:49am

Deny, deny, deny...

Heinz57

9/3/15 11:54am

answer the door in a bikini

johnnycarson

9/3/15 11:58am

Good idea. What is your address?

youngster

9/3/15 12:03pm

When they get there, just act natural. Sit down and watch the game and enjoy it

Jimmy the Shank

9/3/15 12:04pm

Give them an Entry Exam and source them based on Football Knowledge.

cwargolf

9/3/15 12:06pm

Just be honest and tell them that you are watching the game. prob solved!

TRUE_BLUE_COUGY

9/3/15 12:07pm

That's the exact problem my hcbw has with going to the games. My buddy's nhcbw

BlueTooth

I get mad when my wife brings football fans over

Y4LYFE

9/3/15 12:14pm

My wife is a more vocal fan then me.

BYULAWGUY

9/3/15 12:17pm

I would hate that too if I was a chick

Gerald-DeGroot

9/3/15 12:26pm

Or buy a set of radio headphones and listen to Wrubell while you watch the game.

Y2k

9/3/15 12:29pm

Claim to be sick. Look wan, lock your door, watch in your bedroom.

CougarMandias

9/3/15 12:39pm

Ha! I just had a conversation the other day with someone about this.

Yvin

9/3/15 1:11pm

When people talk too much during a football game

Bgash

9/3/15 1:45pm

Yep. I've tested this technique. It works.

CougarMandias

9/3/15 1:46pm

Meh... Friends are overrated.

cougar_chick1

9/3/15 1:49pm

I do this all the time, not just for football. Works great!

frontrowcougar

9/3/15 2:03pm

Your husband is a lucky man....a wife that shares a passion for sports.

Moneycounter

9/3/15 2:12pm

Stop hitting on her.

WhyKnot

9/3/15 2:19pm

I bet your husband is that guy that didn't care for Tucanos

arkansasbleedsblue

9/3/15 2:16pm

I'm afraid you're stuck

Marking Time

9/3/15 2:34pm

Oh trust me.... He knows I'm steamed!

cougar_chick1

9/4/15 8:01am

A much better solution

Marking Time

9/4/15 1:12pm

Great suggestion! Thanks!

cougar_chick1

9/4/15 1:54pm

All I can say is that I'm jealous of your husband...

ShougCoug

9/3/15 2:53pm

Fortunately, when my husband has friends over they NEVER bring their wives!!

Football, Family, Gym, Friends... in that order so give the women the bird & say

LVCougarFan

9/3/15 3:15pm

Buy a six pack of beer, non-alcohol of course, and leave it in the kitchen.

Y2k

9/3/15 3:22pm

I invited a friend over to watch Jimmer vs SDSU @ SDSU

BigEasyCougar

9/3/15 4:19pm

LOL, once again - I envy your attitude.

CaughtForaTouchdown

9/3/15 4:34pm

Let them know now that you plan to watch the game and maybe some will...

icecougar

9/3/15 8:01pm

Not your responsibilities to make small talk.. It's your house
