SAY NO. If you're not watching the game in your lucky chair, wearing your lucky T-shirt, holding your lucky mug, they will lose. |

Well, there's an obvious answer here of staying a day later rather than leaving a day earlier.
Regardless, communication is the key to a good marriage. I think you can mention that it's opening night aganst the Ravens, and she should know what the right answer is. |

We're not some poverty franchise like the Vikings or Chargers. The real season doesn't start until after Christmas. |

Not saying what’s right or wrong for anyone else but my wife knows I don’t miss Chiefs games. I also don’t do travel on Sundays during the NFL season if I can’t be around TV during games. She is good with this for the most part due to being a fan herself but she still tries to get me into other shit once in awhile. I always remind her that she basically gets 30 Sundays a year for me to do whatever she wants. Always seems to work.

There’s no guarantee you’re getting the Quadfecta again. In fact, it seems unlikely even if you make the sacrifice.
Similarly, it’s possible you’ll never be able to watch a home opener again at Arrowhead where they drop the championship banner. Prioritize the game and the experience. This is the golden age and to skimp on what the opener represents just seems such an injustice to the suffering you experienced as a fan of this organization pre-Mahomes. |

I don't say this lightly because you always have to be sensitive to the plight of your significant other, BUT if you told her you want to watch the season opener then goddamnit get your custom beer hardhat on and have fun watching the ****ing game.
