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

9/3/15 10:57am

not quite.

So let them entertain themselves.

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

WhyKnot

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

9/3/15 10:57am

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

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

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

Not his fault.

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

9/3/15 10:58am

Have a depth chart handy for all of them.

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

9/3/15 11:00am

pop /= poop

Hinta

If they can poop nachos, they really have a talent

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

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

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

Sorry to hear that. Good luck. That sucks.

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

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

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

You could play the "Super Hostess" Card.

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

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

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!

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

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!

BYULAWGUY

9/3/15 12:17pm

I would hate that too if I was a chick

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.

9/3/15 12:39pm

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

When people talk too much during a football game

Bgash

9/3/15 1:45pm

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

9/3/15 1:46pm

Meh... Friends are overrated.

9/3/15 1:49pm

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

9/3/15 2:03pm

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