How important is the NFL to you?

[Hagman]

In junior high, I refused to go out for band because they practiced on Monday nights and I'd miss MNF games. I made my sister change the time of her first wedding because it conflicted with a Giants-Cowboys game. I live in northeast Missouri and have traveled to 6 or 7 games a year for many years both in Dallas and on the road. I was a season ticket holder for the last two years of Texas Stadium. I have left my family and friends alone on Thanksgivings and Christmas to go to games. I spend hours every day, even in the offseason, on Cowboys related web sites. It's like a sickness, or a severe drug addiction....

all in all I love it and wouldn't change a thing.

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

Yea. Football isn't life.

It's much more important than that.

Some people live and breath the NFL... How important is the NFL to you?

-Scout

The NFL wouldnt even crack my top 10. I only like the Cowboys, that's it. If they win I'm happier if they lose I'm devastated for 24 hours. But the NFL in general I could careless.

 

[CF74]

Football is about 5 notches above world peace, maybe even higher..:starspin

 

[Seven]

Football, first.


Safety, second.

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

Not a Canucks fan? For me it's food, family, food, drumming, food, music, Dallas Cowboys football, food..... well you get the drift.

I really don't get all excited about other sports, but I do follow the Boys with a passion.

I love the NFL. I would be heartbroken if it somehow was gone for good. But then I'd eventually get over it and look back with some very fond memories.

I will be pissed if their is a lockout next season.

 

[Fletch]

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.

A voice of reason. So very true. God first. Family. Cowboys.

 

[Stautner]

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.

This begs the question, are the Cowboys ahead of family simply because you don't have one, or do you not have one because you place the Cowboys above family.

A little to important, was going to go to Mexico for a month in November but i wasn't sure i'd be able to watch football there so i postponed it to late February instead

If you can afford to take off an entire month and play in Mexico you can afford some kind of satellite hookup.

The issue isn't money or taking time of the issue was me not being 100% sure something like that would even be available there. I use NFL.com game pass to watch games but i wasn't sure if they would block a Mexican IP or not since this service is not available in the US and a lot of countries around the US.
I could most likely watch every game there to, but not being 100% sure meant i wasn't gonna risk it cause i'm a football junkie

 

[Scout200]

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).

Haha! Awesome analogy!!

[NeonDeion21]

God.
Family.
Football.

I can do without a lot. But I can't imagine not having Football at any level, H.S. College or NFL.

 

[Teren_Kanan]

I hate life during off season =(

 

[Little_Roloff]

My biggest fear in life is a lockout next year. I fear this more than any disease.

 

[casmith07]

Its somewhere on my list but nowhere near top 3. For
Me my family comes first, then my profession, then friends and entertainment. Football is definitely around the top of the pile for "entertainment."
