Basketball widow 

A basketball widow is a woman whose man is figuratively married to the beautiful game. He can't tear himself away from the box except in extenuating circumstances (not including grabbing a can of beer during breaks)

My friend complains that she's now a basketball widow; once the game is on, her husband has time for no one and nothing else but his TV and his mentor with whom he analyzes each game all season long.

baseball widow 

Baseball Widow: a woman who loses her husband, fiancée, or boy friend due to the start of baseball season.

Examples could be a man who watches baseball like its oxygen and a necessity of life.
A baseball player who is gone constantly at games, or practices.
Or a baseball coach who is gone every weekend, including some weekdays, for baseball games or tournaments.

Most men use this time to find peace within themselves at a baseball field, or on tv, and there have been several reports of casuatlies, and countless breakups/divorce due to baseball season approaching.

Woman talking to her friend...."Hey where's your husband? Why isn't he at your birthday party?"
Widow "it's opening day, I've become a baseball widow for the next 6 possibly 7 months."

Woman "why wasn't your husband at your mother's birthday party?"
Widow: "He has an out of state tournament with a team he coaches this weekend. Which means I get to slut it up, and he gets drunk after the games with the kid's parents. I'm a baseball widow now."
