My wife has mocked me for years for all of the time i have spent on this forum.

You've got it made, I'm with Finwad. I wish my wife would mock me, instead she's always busting my b@lls that I'm on the laptop.

My reply, "so if I wasn't on the computer I would be staring at the TV watching some stupid show I don't care about and we still wouldn't be engaged in conversation, I might as well at least look at something I like". This doesn't go over too well.

I do. She watched the entire Packer game with me. She also recognized Jim Caldwell up in the booth as the "old colts coach." How I got so lucky I have no idea because I am a complete tard.

Speaking of what MartyCuse said and talking SU sports with people...This is the only place where I can talk to other die hard fans. People in my daily life are not die hard. I was talking to a buddy of mine and I said ZA de-committed and he said "who."

No one else I know is die hard, only one other person follows basketball recruiting as much as me.

People generally ask me what I know about certain players or certain stories.

I log on and this is usually either the first or second stop for me, 1,2 with facebook and here. Flip it around every now and then.

This is a getaway for me, a place for me to discuss SYRACUSE sports all the time.

Also it really is an amazing job the mods and admins do here.

At work, at the bar, everyone I talk to about sports up here are complete idiots. This is the only place I can go for actual sports talk.

My wife does know her sports, so I'm lucky in that way too. She's not big into the SU BB, finds it boring but was the impetus for getting FB seasons and loves my Chicago Bears too. I think she understands the game better than some of the guys I work with.

She gives me a hard time during the week when we're not watching sports and I'm on this site all the time.

I think I blew out my elbow yesterday

I tell her I'll put down syracusefan when she puts down Facebook. The conversation ends quickly.

I'm waiting for someone to say that they are following the football board on their IPad and following the basketball board on their laptop, all at the same time. It would definitely be easier to just keep hitting refresh instead of keep having to toggle between the two boards.

Something tells me that the theme of this thread runs true for many on this board. "Hi, my name is Clifton and I am a Syracusefanaholic".

That's what you have 2 iPads for

Wife...kids...crap. Guys, gotta run for a few minutes.

 

[rocklloyd]

My wife made a "no IPad at kitchen table rule" yesterday. So I ate dinner the breakfast bar by myself last night. F them, there was breaking news.

 

[CusefanATL]

My wife told my son today "sorry Daddy isn't paying attention to you and his head is buried in his phone. With all the problems in the world, Daddy is worried about a coach and a quarterback."

Proud moments in parenthood.

your wife really should be ashamed of herself.

I'm having one if those "I'm not alone in the world" moments. It's like Adam finding Eve -- of course without the procreation, snakes, and brother killing brother. Oh, wait ......

This has been one of my favorite threads ever. Should be tacked up top!

 

[jasjr]

this is hilarious because it is so true...who hasn't had half of this stuff happen to them...
and yes, it is the one place where we can come and everyone is on a similar level of interest in the program, yep it is all true!

You guys all obviously married the wrong women. In my case, my ex-husband did not understand/appreciate my fixation with SU sports.

My wife said yesterday, "I could be walking in front of you completely naked and you wouldn't even notice".

My reply, "I dare you".

Especially in the recent weeks, she has had multiple conversations with me that have ended with me saying, "What was that?"...

Aye...

How about the "you're not even listening to me, are you" comment? Of course, the comeback is that I heard everything you said and you repeat her last sentence and hope there is no further probing.
