The worst reason EVER to miss a Texas game

[GhostOfTomJoad]

So not only will I not be at Senior Day this Saturday to see Colt break the all time wins record as well as send off the seniors in style, I won't even be able to watch it at home or in a sports bar.

Why?

Because my wife spent weeks getting us tickets to see Twilight: New Moon at the Drafthouse @ 7PM on Saturday.

Kill me.

[crackamacgowski]

You should have kept this to yourself.

[mdmost]

Divorce then nuke site from orbit. Only way to be sure.

Seriously, why even post this? You're about to get your ass handed to you by this board. Wasn't your wife handing you your ass enough?

[qB1012]

Oh hell no. I'm not married, but I would not allow. There are 6 other days in the week and months and years to see it. This is Colt and the Seniors last home game. Come on man!

[TexArcher]

[mrsmacgowski]

That is terrible. Awful. Horrendous.

[thekube]

Seeing Twilight is bad enough by itself.

[HenryGandorf]

i hate to be captain obvious, but it's a chick movie, wouldn't she have fun with the girls? does she have friends? can i send her some?

this thing is a dealbreaker. please turn in your longhorn card, and may god have mercy on your soul.

oh, and how do you spend weeks getting a movie ticket? i'm sure she purchased weeks ago, but it's not like it took more than 5 minutes of effort and timing. that theater is gonna be all chicks and gay doods.

[KC-97HORN]

you sir are a dumbass- not only because you would allow your wife to buy tickets on a home game saturday night, but because you would be dumb enough to come on this board and tell us you basically have no balls anymore.

christ man- do it friday night or sunday night or hell- sunday afternoon

[skyharbor215]

Ouch. Will she divorce you if you bail? Doubtful. May be pissed off for awhile, but worth it? Definitely. Very definitely.

[Red Riverer]

So not only will I not be at Senior Day this Saturday to see Colt break the all time wins record as well as send off the seniors in style, I won't even be able to watch it at home or in a sports bar.

Me neither. Instead, I get to drive up to Waco to see a play that a family member is appearing in. What a joyous day this will be.

[WeAreTX]

You have got to be fucking kidding me...

Grow some nuts.

[Jive Turkey]

dude, get rid of the avatar. the Boss would not approve.

replace with a pair of balls, since you obviously dont' have any.

[UTEX90]

There is not a married woman alive that is nasty enough to make this worth it, I don't care what she promised you.

[Stringer]

Have her call a friend. Either that or get a fake doctor's note that says you have the swine flu.

[kangsta]

mother of god

[kangsta]

i have a wedding at 7 to go to and thought that was bad

[BigOrange]

Me neither. Instead, I get to drive up to Waco to see a play that a family member is appearing in. What a joyous day this will be.

this is where generally being an asshole can work in your favor. i dont get invited to bullshit like that.

as to the op, its a fucking movie. its not like the tickets cost an arm and a leg and there won't be a thousand other chances to see it. blow that shit off.

[hitbyatrain]

Grow some balls, and tell her you're not going to be able to go, and that she can take one of her fat little friends. Jesus, man. If she cant understand that you don't want to see that stupid fucking movie, she's a stupid bitch and needs to be taught a lesson.

[HenryGandorf]

BO - exactly. a wedding would suck, but at least it's understandable.

[victory88]

it's a fucking movie you can watch any other night. Dump your wife/gf if she can't understand that.

[The Tower]

tell her not just no, but hell no

[slorch]

My wife is my best friend. In being so, she understands that without one iota of doubt there is no fucking way I would miss a big night for my team when the theater is open 6 other nights that week...

[McNelly]

You must be shitting us..this is a joke, right?

[HenryGandorf]

here's my question - how is she acting about this?

if she feels bad, and is overly apologetic, then it seems like something you should be able to get out of. if she's snotty about it, and puts a movie ahead of shit you're interested in, shit that you can only legitimately do 5-6 times a year, then what the fuck are you doing with this person?

[misterloki]

This is what you get for marrying a 13 year old.

[Quasimofo]

What a sweet, sensitive husband! Strait Horn needs to take you off of the nerd list. (on the bright side, maybe you can line up some stray)

[ECHorn]

.

this is pitiful.

the good news is, after you divorce this wife, you will know not to get married anymore. So you can do what you want to, when you want to. That's what I did.

And my girlfriend understands that sports come first. True.


.

[Sii]

if your wife expects you to go and doesnt understand what is happening Sat night you married the wrong woman pure and simple

even the ex bitch wife I was married to for almost 8 years would have never pulled this shit

[Jive Turkey]

going to a Jonas Brothers concert on Saturday night would be less embarrassing.

[slorch]

BO - exactly. a wedding would suck, but at least it's understandable.

no it's not.

My family knows- no fucking weddings during football season. That's why June is on the calendar...

[mdmost]

My wife is my best friend. In being so, she understands that without one iota of doubt there is no fucking way I would miss a big night for my team when the theater is open 6 other nights that week...

Hear fucking hear. Just told my wife about this and she laughed. No way in hell would she miss Colt's Senior Day.

[orangeuahorn2]

Don't do it.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

And you shouldn't have to ask for permission anyway...*snicker*...but maybe YOU do.

:D

Wedding is understandable and unavoidable. I wish more people would have the common courtesy to not get married on Saturdays in the fall, but if they decide to be selfish pricks there's not much you can do.

A movie, on the other hand, is a horrible reason to miss a Texas game.

That movie is a horrible reason to miss a root canal.

More details, not that it will matter one bit: I turn 40 on Thanksgiving. We head out next Tuesday to spend the week in Vegas at the Venetian. She's never been to Vegas before. My ex & I used to go all the time, so she feels so doubt (typical chick bullshit). It's a big deal. Her attitude about this Saturday (although she's also a Texas Ex & huge 'horn fan; even named our 2nd cat Major) is "it's fucking Kansas, we'll beat them by 40 points" so therefore it's more important that I show her how much I respect things she's passionate about & sacrifice a little for her.

Yes, she's smoking hot. She's blonde, did her undergrad @ Baylor, & has a twin sister. She's promised me "every door is open" while we're celebrating my birthday.

My plan is to get plastered & the Alamo Sat. night, go out to the lobby 1/2 way through & see if they're showing the game.

I'm fucked, guys. I share this with you not for sympathy, but to accept the fact that in the end every man--no matter how big--is controlled by the pussy. This is my moment of shame.

Two things:

1. Cunt punt.
2. Can I have your tickets?

[slorch]

That'll cost her all day Saturday with me lounging in the sportsbook...at a minimum. NBAA

No Bitching At All!

[HookEmTX]

Semi serious question here: Does your wife not know how important Texas football is to you? I mean, that seems like it would be something pretty important for you two to share.

[celis]

You better hate fuck this chick Saturday night.

[ECHorn]

She's promised me "every door is open" while we're celebrating my birthday.

if you REALLY get access to all holes on a really hot chick, that reduces the shame.

good luck with that....she might get a headache...

My solution to this entire ordeal, would be to post nude pics of her in NSAA. That would make me feel better, get my Man Card back, and it's win-win for Shagsters. That's what a man would do. But, then again, you're not a man until Thanksgiving apparently.

[HenryGandorf]

you had me at 40.

[GhostOfTomJoad]

Semi serious question here: Does your wife not know how important Texas football is to you? I mean, that seems like it would be something pretty important for you two to share.

She absolutely knows. And she's almost as committed as I am. We plan our weekends around the games, either going to them, tailgating, or watching them on TV.

She actually admitted to feeling bad about getting the movie tix (she thought the game was @ 2:30, not 7:00).

I've chosen to approach it this way: I now have carte blanche to gamble & drink as much as I want next week.

[GhostOfTomJoad]

you had me at 40.

Ouch. That fucking hurts.

[slorch]

man whore...If you're not loyal to Colt, who will you be loyal to?

[EddieMoney]

Ghost,

You are missing most people's point... you can go to the movie ANY night.

This isn't about sex and being whipped, its about respect. It seems like she doesn't respect you that much, relatively speaking.

[Continental Op]

Have you tried hitting her?

[crackamacgowski]

Ghost,

I still don't understand the "spent weeks getting tickets" thing.

[EddieMoney]

She actually admitted to feeling bad about getting the movie tix (she thought the game was @ 2:30, not 7:00).

Are you worried about the $24 you are going to lose having to throw away the movie tickets and get some for a decent time?
