we live in dallas and love the mavericks. we used to have season tickets, but 40 trips across town a year became a pain in the unowut. well, if you keep up with the nba at all, you know that dallas lost to miami in the finals last night. and the last 4 games dallas played were just awful. usually we just sit and watch the games and if they lose, they lose. but this week and last week, he's really gotten too involved. yelling at the tv and all. he was so upset with them the last 2 games that i seriously thought his blood pressure was going to be sky-high. he wasn't throwing things and wasn't drinking, but it's a side of him i'm not used to. for a few minutes i even felt like i could sympathize with mark cuban's wife. <img src="/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

i was secretly hoping last night the mavs would lose so there wouldn't be a game 7 and he wouldn't get so upset. kwim? i know that totally destroyed the mojo for the team, but i had to do it.

i don't think he'll display this behavior again until the mavs are in the finals again. i dont' see that happening though with the way they choked on this series. maybe that's a good thing? lol.

are there any weird behaviors your partners have suddenly shown after years of being together? and if so, how do you handle it? do you just grin and bear it? or do you tell them how you feel about it?

Husbands can be strange creatures indeed LOL.
My hubby loves to watch Nascar. I tell him we could go and sit on a bridge overlooking I-285, (fellow Atlantans will know what I am talking about), and see the same thing: cars driving around in a circle.

I apologize if I have offended any Nascar fans. It's just not my cup of tea.

My husband shows me new weird behaviors every day. I get used to it.

I give it some time...usually I sleep on it. If it still bothers me a day or two later, I pick a nice, calm, non-busy time, and tell him my feelings in the most tactful, kind manner I can.

If all else fails, let him know you're worried about him and you want him to be okay. That sounds better than "you're getting on my nerves", even if both things are true. Accentuate the positive, and try to euphamize the bad things. Strong words start arguments, I've found.

well, there's no more basketball, so he's been much happier. lol. i keep trying to remind him when the radio is on (we only listen to sportstalk radio, i love it actually) that the mavs had their best season ever. they just sucked the last 3 games. so that's helped him cope.

it's just a little odd to see him get so worked up over this. he's on a new cholesterol med (vytorin), and i wonder if a side effect is extreme irritability at local sports teams or something. <img src="/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

men. can't live with them.

ah, but i love him. <img src="/images/graemlins/heart.gif" alt="" />
