There are fine lines between love and hate, excitement and anger, passion and obsession.

Leon Lett ruined my Thanksgiving dinner. I couldn't stay for dessert, I just didn't have the appetite for it. Then I grew up and had kids, real life and all that.

If I had a hobby, any hobby, that made me angry all of the time - or even a good bit of the time - I'd find a new hobby. What's the point of doing something by choice that makes you upset?

But hey, to each his own.

This. The importance of perspective cannot be overstated.

It's one thing to "be into" something. Have fun with it, involve others, get excited about it. That's a worthwhile hobby, to me.

If I was SERIOUSLY getting down or angry over the outcome of a football game, I'd look for something else, like you said.

But, again, to each his own.

Our offense isn't designed to make plays or score points, it's designed to keep our defense off the field, remember? And it's a rousing success so far -- we're by far No. 1 in the NFL in time of possession per drive AND plays per drive.

Isn't it great?

What makes me angry is what the Cowboys have become from the days of Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson and knowing this current coaching staff and ownership doesn't have the football smarts to build a Super Bowl team.

I put it at about 2 points less than great.

But at least our defenders didn't look too winded giving up 7 yards per carry against the Giants 4 minute offense.

I don't do any of those. But thank you for your judgement.

Hey, no judging being done by me bro. Just sharing my viewpoint, that's all.

You do you. You get angry watching the Bills/Jets on a Thursday night? Own it dude. It infuriates you? Embrace it.

I'm just saying, it's not how I roll, nothin more my man.

I love watching the Jets offense. Their QB doesn't have a golden arm but he's smart and knows where to go with the ball (like Romo). The offense is physical and they execute well (like ours with Romo). Combine that with a solid defense and you've got yourself a good team. Really, they're the same as Dallas but with a good defense.

Haha, never did I expect to see a thread like this made because of the freakin' Jets. The Jets of all teams.

Not Patriots, not Packers, not Panthers, but the Jets. Unbelievable. Take a step back, think, chill, and then come back and read your post.

I'm not actually angry lol. I'm just trying to get my point across online. Which isn't easy. I don't sit here and get mad about other teams. I do however despise seeing other teams do more with less because of coaching. That's the point I was trying to convey.

I sometimes read game threads and wonder how empty they'd be if people had breathalyzers on whatever devices they use to post. I figure it might be me and 2 other people, other than that nothing but cricket sounds.

Hmmm. Backtracking a little?

Thread title = Does anyone else get angry?

1st 2 words of OP = Serious question.

But, whatever you say dude.

Serious question. Does anyone else get absolutely mad when watching real and up to date NFL style coached games? The Jets offense on paper isn't as good as ours and yet they are moving the ball at will against a formidable defense. It's infuriating.
Bloke, I give you extra Man Credit for caring about this inconsequential game between two bland teams.

Most teams understand what actually causes teams to win and lose football games.

Dallas isn't one of those teams.

The fact it's about the Jets and not the top teams in the NFL says something about our offensive playbook.
