Does anyone else get emotional over the Cowboys?

i think anyone who posts here on a regular basis has a very strong emotional tie to this great team of ours.

i usually dont cry after any game, but there has been a couple of games that has almost made me shed a tear. first being the Superbowl loss to the Colts, when you see those old superbowl highlights, and they show their FG kicker, kicking that game winning FG. it makes me sad. only cause we had that game wrapped up and let it slip away.

and when they talk about the Steeler Dynasty of the 70's, its just unfair that we didnt split one of the 2 SB's with them.

and of course the catch vs the 49ers, was not a pleasant scene in our household, i still remember my dad chunking a 5lb ashtray threw a brand new tv set that we had just bought the day before the game.

overall when the Cowboys lose, it just makes a difficult week all around for me, until the next sunday when we kick it off.
 
one time when I was young my brother was like WTH wrong with you its a game and i never did after that.

I have an actual out of body experience and I can see myself standing next to myself acting all crazy and cursing and fist pumping and hitting the pillows or the coach or slapping a strangers hand in a high five.

You mean like that?:laugh2:

My sentiments exactly.

Oh Is that head wound holding you back from publishing anything that people don't think is written by an abused child?


guy constantly uses horrid grammar...or is that 'OK' for literary 'geniuses' like yourself?

...and for the record, I'm not one of the posters that's crying over games so 'shtick' it up your ***.

Ok, for you to make fun of my "horrid grammar" in your girlish way, I can take that.

What I cannot take is you making fun of my head injury. (Even though I still look good like a superdope homeboy from the Big Dtown)

I just cannot recall a Zoner making fun of another's misfortune or injury.
That is just classless.
You need to aplogize not only to me but to the superdope homeboys from the Dtown. Post haste.

I await your response if you are not too ashamed to make your apologies.
If and when you do, it will be forgotten and you will have a clean slate. And you can keep your unicorns and poetry and your man-sensitive crying jags, I don't care.

:mad:

Yawn. I could care less what you want, or think. You've proven to me on countless occasions that you have little to no respect for most of your fellow posters. You poke fun...you should learn to take it.

It's not like I'm actually glad you had an injury...or would wish another one upon you...it's just that I don't like you, and I find the way you post here to be lacking strongly in the 'class' department that you demand from others.

I'm ashamed of nothing, and will take nothing back. Feel free to respond in your typical bull**** homophobic manner. It will won't be acknowledged...at least not by me.
 
Thank baby Jesus that I stumbled across this thread. It's good to know that I'm not the only one who gets a little emotional about my Cowboys. I usually don't get "boo-hoo" emotional, I get "pissed the f#%* off" emotional. However, I almost completely lost it when Romo dropped the snap in the Seattle game. I literally melted off the recliner and fell on the floor face first and layed motionless for about 3 minutes...when the game ended, I stormed to my room and punched 2 holes in my wall. I was distant, quiet and inconsolable for about 2 weeks after the game. What's weird is typically I'm a mild mannered guy. It takes a lot for me to lose control of my emotions. But not when it comes to Cowboys football...it's safe to say that I'm crazy about my Cowboys.

Gee. You are harsh.
Oh, yeah, the girly thing. I regret that because i admire you and your postings.
 
Yep, not as much as I use too.

Up until a few years ago, when the Cowboys lost it would ruin the entire week for me, now it just ruins the entire next day.

When I almost broke my hand punching a wall after what seemed like Quincy Carter's 100th interception in the Playoff Loss to the Carolina Panthers, I realized I needed to take it easy and it was just a football game :D .

I have 4 emotions during Cowboys football.


Excitement, paranoia, frustration, and rage.

I really only like one of the 4.

Lol.

This perfectly describes me.

I don't know about you, but paranoia dominates most of the time.

Funny, that seems to be the only thing people like you can think of to insult me. Your lameness knows no bounds.

I'm so better than that
 
I dont cry over games but if its a big loss I'll probably be down for a couple days.
 
I'm the kind of guy that punches his hand in the wall, breaks all the furniture in the room and then sits and realizes that's its all over, and the season is over, and goes into a deep depression for the week, and bites anyone's head off who says hi to me.

does that count as "emotional"?

Or do i have to cry too?

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?


I was so devastated when we lost to the Giants and they won the Super Bowl, I couldnt bring myself to post here for almost 3 months.
 
I kind of bounce between elation, nervousness, agitation, anger, and depression.

I'm nervous/excited before the game. I'm elated when we do well. I'm agitated when things start to go south. I'm angry once I've been agitated for a while. I'm depressed if we lose.
 
i have a tendency to stay away from cell phones , remotes , controllers or anything of that nature. i can watch alone and be extremely emotional:confused:

Another question for those in this thread. Can you guys stand to have anyone else around during your game watching time?

I can't. I mean, whoever it is and no matter what team they're cheering for, unless they can match my football knowledge, I want them nowhere around me since I can't really express what I'm angry about. I also don't like people asking me what happened after we lose. Don't ask me. I might know, but I don't want to talk about it with you.

Threw a $300 vacuum through a wall once...over a bad call in the first quarter. We won the game.

I pouted so much one time...when we were down by ten at the half, I couldn't watch anymore and turned it off. The girl that I was dating at the time was feeling frisky and tried to start a little sum'n sum'n....but she got up all pissed off because she could tell that I was just going through the motions. She turned the TV back on so I would stop being a baby, and we were up by a touchdown.

So, yeah, the Cowboys are more important to me than money or sex. I get a little emotional. The only thing comparable is the love for my dog.

Dam dude, hit the Tivo button next time and get some action. What is wrong with you:mad:
