I'm facing a dilemma (sp)

[mooby]

damnit. My g/f's birthday is on sunday, we've been going out for almost 1-1/2 - 2 months now, and i have to make a choice. watch the game, or go shopping and spend the day with her. damnit the two things i love the most, her or the game. right now i'm leaning more towards her, cuz we're close and everything, but it's gonna suck that i have to miss a redskins game.

take her to the game and buy her a jersey

[mooby]

she's not into football plus i have no way of getting there, nor do i have tickets.

Dude, don't lose your balls after 1 - 2 months. Watch the game. You can watch the game AND go shopping with her either before or after. Just let her know that it is important to you and if she cares at all about you, she'll be cool with it. If not, then SHE has the problem.

See if you can pull off both. Go shopping or whatever and go for a meal and drinks somewhere you can catch the game. Sit at the bar area if that is the only place they have TVs. Say you want to sit at the bar becuase you hurt your back or something and the bar stools are better on your back.

Other than that I would skip football this one weekend. Her birthday is only 1 day a year and only a 1 in 7 chance of being on Sun. It is only week 4 not the playoffs yet. If it were the playoffs I would dump her rather then take the chance her birthday would fall on a Sun later on.

Don't read this poison. Football for the past few years has only been on 16 days a year for us. the begginning is good, try to do both, obviously don't blow it off but cmon, it is 3 hours and you can spend the entire day after that, Atleast watch the second half. You won't even be focused if you aren't watchinng the game, you will be wondering the entire time, just watch the game. It is a sunday, A SUNDAY that day is reserved for US

We can't make this decision for you, obviously you know the details but is it entirly out of the question to watch the game with her?

skinsguy came up with the most obvious answer, tape the game and watch it later, Just make sure you don't hear anything about it till you watch it. That is ok, you waited 13 days for football so it is ok if you wait just a few more hours
If Skinsguy wins the award for best plan, Jgale gets honorable recognition
AND y o y does this thread not have a poll?

I have only read the first sentence and i see where this is going, no way you miss the game. No F-in way. Watch the game with her then do something, it ends at 4:30 you could eat dinner or something after the game or you could do something and be back by 1 but don't miss the game

[Riggo44]

Take Her to the game and buy Her anything at Fed Ex she wants. Tell Her that "There is no where in the world I would rather be.Then with you celebrating one of the best days in world history(a.ka. Her B-Day)with you and our Washington Redskins!"
Try not to get too wasted and take her to a nice dinner after words. That's what I would do.

If She doesn't go for that just take the B-tch shopping on Sat!Then you will be free to ditch Her ass during the game on Sun.
p.s That last part was a joke. I am sure she is really really sweet.

Spend the day with her watching the game with you.

Here's the agenda:

11am brunch in a nice restaurant. They love that crap.

1-4 Nice romantic afternoon you and her curled up on the couch at her place, watching the Skins.

Tell her this is an important part of her life and you want her involved in it. She' wearing the new Skins hat you gave her at brunch that her cute little pony tail comes out of.

6pm You make dinner for her.

730 Bang the bejesus out of her.

735 Head home.

8pm Turn on ESPN

Take it from me, if she is expecting you to spend the whole day with her (especially if you have mentioned it before,) you're going to be spending the whole day with her. Can't ya tape the game and watch it later?

[Longtimefan]

Set your VCR man and catch the game after you do your doo!!

[mooby]

wow, all these suggestions are great. unfortunately, i'm only 17, and i'm not much of a drinker (occasionally, at a party or something) lol.

[Gmanc711]

A month and a half? Forget it. Watch the game; thats like a 25 annaverary type of sacrifice.

LOL!!!! Last year, I had to help my fiancee and her mother during the Bears game. Luckily, I had seen the best parts of the game, but I was like, "Honey do you realize you're calling me during a Redskins game?!!"

[jgalecpa]

17?

Okay. We're gonna let you in on a secret here.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO, IT WILL BE WRONG.

Take her shopping saturday.

Watch the skins game sunday (Invite her to watch it with you).

Go over to her place for dinner sunday.

Go home and yank it.
