no chance to escape sport in my house, the husband is sport daft, during winter my sunday goes something like this.

sunday supplement on sky around 9am
then watches goals on sunday
squeeze in a late breakfast he makes it I tidy up.
pre match analysis for the first game
sunday lunchtime 1200 kick off
watches first game
watches post match analysis
then moves onto the second game that starts either mid afternoon / tea time
that involves pre match analysis, game then post match analysis
if no tea time / 3rd game on then switches to the Spanish football league
then tunes into your on sky sports at 10pm to see what they have been saying about the todays games.
then when that finishes around 11pm hands me the remote and says anything you want to watch.
to which I reply .................  prob best not to say.

Gets annoyed if Grand Prix is on then he has to switch between it and football.

All year round he watches golf, tennis, snooker, darts, cricket, athletics etc - you name he watches it

Be a whole lot healthier if he got his backside off sofa, took remote out of his hand and actually played a sport.

Phew that feels better!

Very little football in our house, but I love my grass-court tennis and will not be deprived of Wimbledon!

I'm rather glad footie is on late at night, cos I'll be in bed.  ;D

As for Wimbledon, I do like tennis & will be watching it as I have in the past.

We have our own TVs and Sky box's, its the only way :) OH has his own bedroom too so he can hole up, and watch as much sport as he wants too.

Takes care of the snoring too :)

Got tv in one bedroom, but rarely on unless someone is ill.

Silverlady, sympathise with the snoring aspect.  My hubby could snore standing on his head.  However, he is losing heaps of weight, so hopefully his snoring will diminish.  That way I can move back to our bedroom.  Strangely I cope with his snoring when on holiday.  Weird!  ::)

I don't think OH will be missing many of the games.  He said if the 11 o'clock game isnt a high profile game he will record it and watch it in the morning.  >:(

Love watching tennis and like Wimbledon, even though I don't think we'll see our Andy getting past Nadal.

Haven't watched a football match in my life, except for one I went to when I was twelve (just to see what it was like), with my Dad and my then-6-year-old brother.  Can't be bothered with football - a lot of grown men running round a field after a ball.  Haven't they anything better to do with their lives???   ::)
