Re: If you are having SB guests, passing out this memo is strongly encouraged
I'm having a small 'party' of 6 or 7 people, a couple are Cowboys fans.
I don't mind watching the game with people, as long as they are prepared to watch me embarrass myself by yelling at the TV and inching closer and closer to losing faith in the team (though I never do).
I watched SB42 alone with my (now) wife, so I figure it's OK to change it up. Besides, we've had a 'party' for each of the last 3 SBs, so it would be lame to tell the people who come every year to go somewhere else.

Re: If you are having SB guests, passing out this memo is strongly encouraged
I watched a couple of Super Bowls at a neighbor's house. Not sure why I went back the second time because fitting 10 people into a room with only 2-3 watching the game and only 1 passionate football fan there (me) is a recipe for a bad time.
This year I have turned down all SB party invitations and will watch it (non-quietly) at home with my wife. However, we'll have enough food for 6.
Re: If you are having SB guests, passing out this memo is strongly encouraged
Watching a game alone means no trash talking and fewer stupid questions. Watching it with a bunch of friends means a greater assortment of food and drink, more energy during a good game, and commiseration during a bad game.
As long as I've got a prime seat, I'm fine with either setup.

On the bright side, any NFC East fan is going to become a temporary Patriots fan for a day.

She doesn't even need to ask... just knows after many years of this. I truly love her for that
Wow, amen to that. When things are going bad, like the 06 AFC Championship Game, not only did my wife not leave me alone, but she felt the need to pull the "IT's JUST A GAME, I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU ARE GETTING ALL BENT OUT OF SHAPE" tirade. It drives me crazy, she's already given me the speech before this week's game. It's just a game, blah blah blah.
CORRECTION: IT'S NOT JUST A GAME!!!! If you don't know that by now then you don't know me.

i'll either be guiding with what is probably an arsenal on both sides somewhere around michigan ave in chicago and evantson
or sleeping in a cow field (lemont illinois)
if there are "enough" people out there, i think rushing will be pretty even.
(also, i might pick up some "irish cream whiskey?" at world market just saying

ps: (i can't wait, my ex-girlfriend alisa who is with paul in a "better place" just mentioned mcdonalds off of lincoln and fullerton. ok. maybe i'll be out lol)

WORST THING A SPOUSE/SO CAN DO. My wife used to do that — not a tirade, but actual concern, like "... are you OK? It's just a game." First and only time I ever gave her the (Please be quiet - edited) glare.
Edit: First time I ever got the "Please be quiet" edit! Oh well. Hopefully folks here know what I mean.
