It is important in terms of enjoyment. I have loved the game of football since I was a little kid and that love of the game has never changed.

Its like family to me. You love it when they are around in the beginning(would watch any game once the season starts), get tired of them usually in the middle(non cowboys games get boring in the middle), and then miss them when they are not around(end of season. long summer).

I love it because I enjoy it so much and there are so many complexities and different ways to do things, combined with trying to project how things will do...all great, fun stuff. It's the ultimate team sport and probably the biggest strategy sport in the world. That's why I get angry when somebody like Belichick cheats. He not only cheated fans like myself, but he attempted to circumvent the strategy of the game. It's funny, I was reading Pat Kirwan's book (great book) and it's easy to see how much the Patriots were GREATLY helped by their cheating. Kirwan never mentions the Patriots and SpyGate, but one can easily draw the conclusion of the TREMENDOUS advantage the Patriots have.

And I'm not even a fan of an opposing AFC East or AFC team. But I enjoy the NFL so much that it really ticks me off that somebody would try to ruin the game like the Patriots and Belichick did.

I'd say I'm an NFL loyalist and one that supports the league and praises it's great attributes, but I'm not a blind loyalist and supporter. Hopefully my concerns about Goodell are overstated and I keep loving the NFL for a very long time.

You put God before family?

I love the Cowboys and NFL but if the league died, I would miss it but wouldn't have an effect on my life.

For me probably Family, job, friends, Montreal Canadiens, Dallas Cowboys, NFL

I could say country is more important to me...but I don't spend 5 hours of my week giving/thinking about/writing about/arguing about my country.

I could say God is more important to me...but I don't believe

I could say family is more important to me...but I don't have one.


So the Cowboys/NFL/Sports probably gets into the top five easily enough, below my friends, my business, and several creative hobbies.

When I was younger, the Boyz seemed like the most important thing in the world to me. I would literally cry after the Boyz lost a game.


However, as I became older, I realized that it is just a game. As I have seen family members pass on and as I have lost family pets one by one, I have come to realize that this is just entertainment and not life or death.

There are many things in life more important than the outcome of a football game. So the NFL is just entertainment for me, just like going to the movies.

Keep it in perspective guys, alway remember to keep it in perspective.

It's important enough for me to keep spending hundreds of dollars on NFL Sunday Ticket each season for the past 16 years. :cool: But, to be totally honest, it's a guarantee so that I never have to miss a Cowboys game ever, so it's all good. :p:

Its up there. I could live with out it, and still find plenty of ways to be happy on Sundays in the fall, but it's important and I'd rather not have to do without it.

Its pretty up there as far as entertainment is concerned, I think definitly top 3. However, in the broader context of life it gets overshadowed by more important things.
