My wife says that I am addicted to Celticsblog. 

I say that she's wrong and that I can easily go 10 - 20 minutes in a row without checking in.

She's suggesting a 10 step program - so I ask you all.............What would be the 10 steps to counter C.A. (Celticsblog Addiction)?........Oh, and creativity counts!!




I love my kids, call me a sap - it's true.

My wife, (both of them), used to have issues with my sports/Cetics obsessions, too ... I'm now single, but my girlfriend loves sports as much as I do, (well, not quite as much). Kind of a drastic resolution, I grant you, but very effective in solving the problem, (I've always been one to take the narrow, winding road).

are you saying you divorced 2 women because they couldn't accept your love of sport? that's on their end, not yours (if I'm reading that right) - women should show at least some attempt to be interested in what we like - my gf has a Rondo jersey, because she thinks he's cute I think, (she took me to a practice, we sat front row, she was like wow he's so fast, then clammored for a jersey) but anyways - she's not a diehard fan, but shows interest in what interests me, which is awesome, just like I'll go to a lame movie (though Sex in the City is turning into a sticking point!) to appease her and see what she likes... thats how relationships work

I'm not certain where this step would fall in the 10 (or 12) steps, but here is one to chew on:

1) Step: Admit to yourself that Tommy Points are important to you.

Action: Share this openly with those close to you. Ask your wife for TPs for  exceptional efforts at home.

1) Accept that you don't have a problem. Its everybody else who has the problem, they don't read or post on CelticsBlog.Stay the same.

Just tell her "I can either blog and watch the games with my fellow Celtic fans here at home or watch the game at the NUDIE BAR".
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

No ... I'm just using this as a lame excuse for not having successful marriages ... it seemed a good time. I was actually trying to be ironically humorful, but it failed miserably, lol, (as did both of my marriages). Actually, being a single dad was the greatest, most rewarding experience of my life, and my kids ended up very secure, motivated people, who know they're loved very dearly, by both their parents, despite the trauma of divorce. Do I wish I'd spared them that? Absolutely ... but there are many kinds of families, and none of them guarantee success.
