Do any of you get really emotional over the Cowboys?

I do. I find myself watching HK, preseason games, regular season games, highlights, etc and I end up getting teary eyed. I was born and raised in the Dallas area, lived there my whole life, I feel like I have some sort of connection to the team. Last year I cried when we lost to the stupid Giants. I cried when I saw TO crying defending Romo.

Anyone else?

half the fun of football is the emotional highs and lows.its awesome when we WIN,and sucks when we lose.last year was FUN!even though we lost in the playoffs,...the whole year was fun.especially compared to the Parcells/Campo years.

I little of column A and a little of column B.

For big moments, yes I get teary eyed. When they won Superbowls, when Emmitt broke the record, when Aikman, Emmitt, Irvin, Woodson all had to retire. Those kind of things make me teary eyed.

When they lose...nah. I generally either am just like...dang it. Or I get REALLY REALLY ticked off. The playoff loss to the Giants really ticked me off. The loss to the Niners in 94 in the NFC Championship really ticked me off.

I remember back in 1982, as a 2nd grader, I balled my eyes out when Dwight Clark and Joe Montana hooked up for "the catch". Now i just fluctuate between nirvana and rage according to the outcome of the games.

As much as I hate to admit it...yes they did. They deserved to win it more because they went out and did their job.

I hate it but that's life.

I was crying after the playoff loss last year, too. Then when TO cried, I cried.

It's easy to be moved to tears by the game, the team and the players that mean so much to you.

Nothing to be ashamed of at all.

I did as well after that game.

Now I just throw things. I have gotten very good at putting remote controls back together.

I sometimes get a teary eye when we lose a game we had in the bag. Like the Washington game two years ago when they blocked the field goal, and sean taylor ran it back, and then we got a penalty!!! I was about a foot from throwing a lawn chair in our pool before my wife stopped me. She was like, "why do you get so emotional all the time" Because I love the Cowboys and football!!!!

That game pissed me off sooo bad, it took me half the season to get over it! We could have been 10-6 with that win and it would have changed things in the division IMO.

In general though if we lose a game on Sunday I'm a wreck on Monday....almost like I'm sick....I don't want to do anything.....except get to next Sunday!

I have 4 emotions during Cowboys football.


Excitement, paranoia, frustration, and rage.

I really only like one of the 4.

I don't know about emotional...but my wife forces me to drink adult beverages a bit prior to kickoff and several times during the game. She cannot stand how I get without medication. I have to admit, it's convenient ;-)
