It sucks but it's the truth.
Technology has helped me enjoy the games on my time, plus you can skip through commercials and all the blah, blah, blah during intermission (I do realize it's a live show and they need to fill time). Having kids has made the experience of being a fan even more rewarding for myself. Since my son turned five (the age where he would actually watch the game and not whine) he has been my soul companion attending Flames games. We have a routine and I find it a great way to spend time together.
