Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 the one where the Saints win...he has it on DVD and it has become a tradition (ok, this is only the second year he is doing this) to watch the Saints win the Superbowl before the new football season begins. I just don't get it. I can understand watching highlights of the game, or any game, but a whole game....:confused: Anyone else rewatch complete football games?

Meriwether Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 When we were first married, my husband tried watching games on the classics channel. Sorry. Not happening. I would let him rewatch a special game - but just watching old ones because there weren't any new ones? I didn't want that habit forming. And, no, that is nothing like rereading a book for the 82nd time.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWOB Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Oh I get it. That was only the best Super Bowl ever. It should be watched over and over again. I'm no help. I am a flaming Saints fan. I watch more football than my dh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danybug Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I figured I am lucky when I read this. My dh does not watch sports of any kind ever. That would be awful! Sorry, I am not much help :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRAAB Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Count yourself lucky if it's only the Superbowl. My dh records every single football of his favorite and then watches them during off season. No, he studies them. He has an entire library. I gave up years ago trying to understand.

i.love.lucy Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 We DVRd that game when it was first on and then dh burned it to a disc. He's watched it...oh....10 times. Each time at the end he looks like he wants to cry. Right now he's out in the garage in his man-cave with a cigar and hollering at LSU.

EJCMom Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I think that would be kind of like watching a favorite movie over and over. I guess we all have our our quirks. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My parents were at the first game at Tulane stadium. We schlepped a TV in our minivan when we were moving once because the Saints were in their first playoff game. (We had no furniture, not even dishes, just sleeping bags, the TV and an antenna.) So yeah, I could see him rewatching that one game over and over and over.

Sorry, I am not much help :tongue_smilie: This is my dh, too. I grew up in a sports house. His dad watches lots of college sports (football, basketball). I had to convince him that it was ok to let the boys watch part of a game today. Overall, it has its advantages. For the game in question, I took the older dc with me to watch it with the youth group at church. Dh wanted to watch a movie at home.

I am a flaming Saints fan. I watch more football than my dh. :iagree: I would totally watch that game again! I LOVED that game. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmommy Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 I don't know. My dh and boys watch the '85 superbowl game before every superbowl. Oh, and the Bears always win the superbowl in our house, whether they play or not. It's a foreign world to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Saints win every Super Bowl and LSU wins every NCAA Championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeannpal Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 In my house I'm the one that loves football-well, college football anyway. DH grew up on hockey (darn Yankee;)). I have so enjoyed this opening day of football season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
