Wife went to bed at 10 and I told myself I'd follow but somehow I'm still here at 1am watching overtime. Worth it though because that was an insane game.
Every single time. Tell myself I'll watch one game and suddenly it's halftime of a second one. Wife has learned to just go to bed without me. College football does this to me especially.
Overtime games are the worst for this. You keep telling yourself okay one more quarter. Next thing you know you're watching post-game analysis and it's almost 2am.
It's the perfect excuse to have guilt-free me time. Kids are asleep, wife is asleep, nobody needs anything. That's my reasoning anyway.
1am is amateur hour. Try 3am with four kids who somehow all decided to wake up. But yeah overtimes kill me too. Can't turn it off once the game gets close.
Me every single night. Tell myself I'm going to bed at 10:30 and somehow it's 1am and I'm deep in an overtime game. Wife just rolls her eyes at this point.

This is the dream right here. No kids asking for water, no interruptions. Just pure sports and silence. I'd stay up till 2 every night if I could but the morning alarm doesn't care.
