If you don't attend the game

Submitted by ldevon1 on

What is your preference to watch it? Alone, or with a few people, or at the bar with a large crowd? I prefer to watch alone with a few craft beers and a nice bourbon. I don't mind if my girl is there, but it's not a requirement.  I don't mind a party for bowl games, but for a regular game, I would rather watch alone.

You bragged that you didnt miss a single game as a child. I guess you were just that rare 8 year old able to balance your factory job with Mrs Libby's 1st grade reading hour.

Maybe reconsider this whole "tongue-in-cheek" thing... you arent very good at it.

It's called life. Shit happens and other things take higher priority. It's quite impressive that you've been able to avoid this mostly. I have four weddings this Fall and the only one that has the common courtesy to not have it on a Saturday is in Columbus, so I'll be stuck there for Staurday morning.

of living near the stadium is being able to tailgate then walk home to watch the game from a comfy couch, with icy beers galore. Attending the games is fun once or twice a year but more than that would mess with this pretty good system. Added benefit: still get the crowd noise after a big play!

for acting like you missed my sarcasm re: points, thus mobile negging me for it.

Side bar. This was slightly talked aboout the other day but it never really took off. I see a lot of folks use the app instead of the webiste. Maybe it's a type of phone thing. I've got a Note 5, and previously had an S4 and an S3. I never use the app unless it's to check deleted posts or locked threads. Does the website perform or show up that poorly on some smartphones that the app is a better option?

Generally prefer to watch with a couple trusted allies that know when to be quiet, when to talk, and generally understand football. I absolutely can't watch with someone that overreacts and lives and dies with each and every play. Give me relative quiet and good beer and I'm all set.

I was in the stadium for the msu game when that bullshit targeting call came. There is no such thing as overreaction to that. Myself and my 4 main game day friends were in my living room when Manningham beat psu and later for Denard to Gallon then Roundtree. There is no such thing as overreacting to that. How the eff can you just sit there like a stone when great and shitty things happen? To me, that's worse than the person that doesn't give a shit either way.
