Am I crazy to do this??

Both

 

That's asking a lot from your wife, I admire your fandom but that's a lot of time away from her and your very young child plus big expense. Even if she agrees to it, the resentment can start or may have already. Then she's thinking about how she would like to do things alone without you, this can spiral into bad stuff maybe even years down the road. Be very cautious about the seeds you are sowing. You asked for opinions, you got mine. I'm 65, married 37 years.

 

I'd guess that if you're asking then you suspect your wife may not be happy about it. It seems that any time you feel the need to justify an action, it's probably something you shouldn't do. Family really is the most important thing in life, imho. Single? Sh!# yeah I'd do both!

 

You have 1 kid?

GO! You don’t realize how easy life is with one… until you have 3! lol!

kidding aside- if/when you have more kids, it becomes “all hands on deck”. And as they get older… obligations and things you just won’t want to miss in your kids lives, will take over. I spend virtually every night at a court, field, band or piano performance. I can’t tell you how many gators games I now watch on my phone… but I love it. (Thus the end of: Typing as I listen….)

You don’t know it now… but your life is as easy as it will be.

Go to the game.

go now!

 

Sounds perfectly reasonable to me unless, that is, you are a jinx when you go to our games. I have already informed my wife that I will be going to San Antonio should the opportunity arise.

 

You’re not crazy if you have the green alight from the wife..

 

Original Joe's.
I think if you communicate fully with your wife, and she agrees to your plan, then its a go. But if you notice any hesitation...I personally wouldn't risk it for a game of basketball. Just my 2 cents.

 

You're not kidding.. you're speaking facts

As someone who has 3 under 10, there's always one that's throwing up, 1 that's trying to flip a 4 wheeler and 1 that just screams, nothing more nothing less just screaming.

To the original poster, if you and your wife don't keep score about stuff like this, go and enjoy it. Don't enjoy it too much though, maybe have a flat in your rental and almost miss the game. Loose your luggage or come home with a sinus infection. Do not come through that door smiling.

 

I’d rather wait and go to a final four game, hopefully when we win tomorrow. Something about attending a final 4 game, unless you’ve already been to one.

 

Would you be bringing your side piece? j/k. Don't answer that.

I'm on team "GO!". As long as you know it's with actual wife approval. Not some type of trap-approval. Only you can answer that one. Good luck.

 

Don't leave your heart in San Francisco, and remember the Alamo!

 

If your wife is okay with it, I would say go. I was in Raleigh, by myself watching the Gators. Getting a hotel and tickets was pricey, but I told my wife I really don’t wanna miss watching this team play, as they have a legitimate chance of winning the national title. She understood and encouraged me to go.

It’s been eight years since we’ve been to the Elite Eight. And if you watch us win, what a fun memory you’ll always have. So again, if she’s down with it, get out there and cheer us on to victory!

 

One word of warning. If you see this guy along the way, don't stop!

 

Sounds like you deserve a trip and then another to the Final Four
If she says no, remind her of the blond in waiting

 

Sit next to someone else this time or there’s no explaining your way out of that one

 

Do it. She might be pissed at first, but time and good deeds heals all wounds.

 

Or she might say that time wounds all heels.

 

You are crazy, and accordingly you should go! Maybe I'll see you there? Gator fans unite in the City by the Bay!

I'm going solo, so if @twodaparty or anyone wants to meet up I'm good for a round or two. Team hotel appears to be the Westin St. Francis...

Go Gators, let's March on and cut down some more nets!
