HOF Ruth Moments... and my wife
-
For the Ruth moments, I started off by playing in order, like I always do. Beat the Orioles. OK. This is easy. Decided to skip straight to HOF challenges at the end. For me, this is no easy task. I beat the AL East, 1-0 mainly because of a bases loaded walk. So, I skipped to NL "final" for the heck of it. Yikes.
I'm struggling away. I'm facing Sheffield in the bottom of the 5th, score 0-0. My wife walks into the room mid-pitch and says "hello". I look up to say "hi", wasn't paying attention and grooved a fastball straight down the middle. He blasted a no-doubter 450 feet. My wife says "Yay! Nice one!" I said "that wasn't me". She said "I thought you were good at this game. You play it all the time."
Top of the 6th, down 1-0. Scratch out 2 walks, then my newly acquired Posada hits a 3 run HR. My wife says "Awww... another HR? I'm sorry." I said "that was me this time". She said "Oh. Did you put it on an easier setting?"
Married 22 years. Love her to pieces. Still.

She’s a keeper man, kudos!

Nice man. My wife just knows to ask if it’s a real game aka H2H so she knows if I can help her with whatever she needs or not
-
Have definitely had the same thing happen to me
-
Anytime the RNG gets too hard to handle just make sure you take advantage of that 7inning stretch if you catch my drift
Baseball season back baby . -

That's funny. My wife knows to look at the screen before talking. My rule is don't talk to me if I'm batting. If im pitching she'll talk.

Being single without a woman sucks, but being alone is gold doing this or other hard gaming stuff.
Just beat Alien: Isolation on Hard. Wifey doesn't need to hear me raging: 'How did this flipping alien know i was here????' Or "That was a perfect/perfect!' -
To me I just keep thinking of the convo in Major League between Pete Vokovic (Bring him into the game SDS I want a Clu Heyward card) and Clevelands catcher "how's your wife and my kids" genuinely one of the better one liners to this day
-
Funniest story on the forums I've ever read. @arvcpa I have my family trash talk me as well lol
-
