>>My wife had me make dinner (women don't understand) while the match was on, and watch the match on the small portable in the kitchen. I didn't mind in the 2nd half, after the debacle of the 1st, but I got my cajones back and downed tools after practically missing the 1st 2 Liverpool goals! :-)

>My wife is from Peru and a soccer fan. She allowed me to watch the game without interruption. I normally help make dinner but somehow I got away with this.

This was her saying "while I get the kids to bed you make the dinner"
"but this is MY team, in a once-in-20-years match"
"You can watch it on the portable while you chop the veg"

Somehow it's not the same as being on the terrace, or on the sofa with your feet up and a can of beer in hand. And to be involved in such a macho event but be simultaneously hen-pecked. Don't get me wrong, I'm not hen-pecked but, come one, she could have picked a better time to put her foot down. :-)
