I have a habit of not texting him about the game until I know for sure he's watched it, that way when he see's it it's like he's watching it live. If you can't miss watching two Non-Eagle teams live as it happens on Sunday nights then maybe it's really you who has the problem and not your gf's family. If the Eagles are playing then you can make that the odd week you miss Sunday dinner.

Yeah, I like to watch a lot of non-Eagles games because I usually have money on them. I have a PVR, but I see it this way:
I work 5 days a week like everyone else, but when I come my girlfriend usually has control of the TV for the evening. That's fine with me because I don't really watch a lot of TV and she has certain programs she likes. On Fridays and Saturdays we usually spend a good chunk of the day doing things she wants to do, so I take Sundays for me. I don't think having one day a week to yourself is too unreasonable.
EDIT: And let's be clear, her family doesn't have a problem with it. Her and her mom think it's funny that I dedicate my day to that. Her brothers don't care either. The only one who has problem with it is her dad.
