Nah.....watch all games the same way, by my lonesome. Can't stand a lot talking during the game....

BTW......in strange way, I feel better about this game than Seahawks last week. No idea why this game isn't scaring me.....
Funny, but I usually prefer watching games by myself or just 1 or 2 buddies. I don't really like a bunch of chit chat that's got nothing to do with the game I'm trying to watch.

As for the folks who get antsy about us in the playoffs - relax. It'll get better once we become used to us being there year after year after year.

I can relax and enjoy regular season games but I'm too anxious to actually enjoy playoff games. I end up cursing/yelling after every bad play and penalty. I behave like a wild animal during playoff games. I can't control myself. I probably won't sleep tonight. What is wrong with me?
Like some famous Mexican actors once told me during filming, "hechate unas 3..., y duermes a toda madre!"

There is so much tension and pressure in the playoffs. I can feel it as a fan. I’m so impressed with players that seem to thrive in that kind of situation, like Dak.

Nothing beats the feeling of a playoff win. It’s makes everything worthwhile.

I can sleep, but emotions are definitely elevated for me during these games.

I used to get mad with our Romo teams and felt emotionless about a loss towards the end of his career due to our defense being practically franchise worst along with JG's stupidity. With our current team and state of the QB I just shake my head because it was expected and we've all been down this path of careers being thrown down the toilet, except this time I feel like one player holds most of the blame.

Over the last twenty-plus years I start out feeling great... But eventually I end up reaching for the Peptobismol.

I can't relax for any game, playoffs are tougher.

Exactly.......Wanna really get pissed? Have a couple in-laws who's only watched a few games all year show up and decide they're staying and watch. Makes matters worst, running their mouth like they know every damn thing. Can't say a whole lot coz your wife so happy seeing ( thinking?) you getting along so well with her brothers, uncles...etc. I tell ya right here some the worst games I was FORCED to watch (LOL).

I haven't in the past, but last weekend was different, and I feel like this Saturday will be too.

Heck yes I am!!!! I've been excited for Saturday since we won last Saturday night. I've been looking at the countdown on my watch every hour this week. :laugh: I am torn in half though. Part excited for a win and part scared for a loss. That is making me do stupid things like believing I have a playoff beard going (I know this is a hockey thing usually but I'm just rolling with it). :D

That's why God invented DVR's. If anybody is at my house when a game is on, I turn it off and watch after they leave. That usually only happens on Thanksgiving, as we usually host family. Everybody knows about me and the Cowboys, so they are gracious enough not to overstay their welcome. :)

Same here with my family and in-laws.....they know if the Cowboys are playing, nothing short of death matters to me and they mostly stay in their lane. It's just every so often ( usually once or twice a season ) situation kinda show up I didn't see coming (LOL).

I can control myself, I just refuse to do so! :muttley:

Watching my Dodgers or Cowboys in the playoffs when they are not at home is basically not fun....I expect disaster around every corner. And I expect to get screwed by the officials, when watching ANY Cowboy road game.

Can I confess that I’m having trouble watching? I didn’t have that problem in 2016 and 2014. I nearly threw up after the Dak run on third down that basically sealed the game. If this team moves on I might need meds and time off from work. I don’t believe I can handle it.
