My bride has very little interest in sports,except for the Olympics (gymnastics,figure skating). When I had season tickets,I would have to semi beg her to go to one game a year with us.

My gf is a pats fan and knows her stuff. She’s pregnant and due Saturday. She wants rosen. I want rosen. I think she only wants rosen cause I want rosen. I may take the kids and leave.

She is on the road.  She is also a 9ers fan.  She has grown to love Buffalo though.  Her first question will be if I think the 9ers did well.  Her next question will be what did I feed the boys.  She may get around to asking about the Bills but I doubt it. 

 

At least she is aware and somewhat knowledgeable.   All things considered, love her to the moon and back....

My wife is pretty cool. She laughs at how I set up the laptop and Ipad, and pokes her head in when I start screaming at the tv.  I used to hit the bars but now I stick close to home. She even made the trip to Toronto with me in 2009 (when we lived in Amherst) for the International Bowl, UConn vs UB.

I've been following the Bills since the late 60's.  I can't remember people in WNY being so excited.  We got invited to a draft party tonight.  Should be fun.  

 

Hopefully after the trade-up tonight, the Bills still give us a reason to watch tomorrow.

My better half had the audacity to have her birthday today!!!  How could she?!?

 

Now I have to create the illusion that she is getting my undivided attention on her special day while checking the draft status every time she leaves the room or I go to the washroom.  I hope the Bills get their guy(s) and my relationship is still intact tomorrow.  Wish me luck!

 

Grab some ex-lax so you can stay in the washroom all night.

 

 

My wife isn't in to football. But she likes to make negative comments about random Bills players because she likes getting me worked up. She thinks it's funny.

 

But she pretty much just leaves me alone and does her own stuff. We're both pretty independent so we like having our own things to do.

 

But she has grown to love Jim Kelly because she has watched documentaries about him and thinks he is an inspirational guy with all he has been through.

My wife, a Giants fan, watches the draft with me. She also watches hockey and baseball with me....and actually likes doing so.

My wife hates football and is super annoyed that I still watch shows about football after the season, lol. She especially hates the draft and said she should have gotten a hotel :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

 

 

That said she usually leaves me alone with the occasional gripe.

My wife works tonight (nurse), but my kids have practice from 7-8:30. I’m thinking about dropping them off early and coming home to watch and then going back out to get them. But knowing my luck, the Bills pick will happen when I am going back to get them.

...my late wife developed a hatred for the Bills, stemming from the start of "the drought".."why are you watching those losers again?"...hell, she'd pick the 0-15 Lions vs Bflo FIRST on her parlay......having lost her in 2015 to an egregious hospital accident, I stay low key during the drafts when it comes to Bflo.....if not, she'll be beotching at me from somewhere.....some things never change....
