How Would a Cowboys Super Bowl Win/Loss in 2022 impact Your Life?

[visionary]

We didn’t make it to the SB in 2022 so it didn’t affect my life at all

 

[zrinkill]

I would be in a really good mood for a few days.

 

[Risen Star]

It's everything. The difference between happiness or going on antidepressants.

 

[Montanalo]

Not withstanding the occasional arthritis, my swagger would return

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

I would be pretty happy for a couple of weeks then move on.

 

[Asklesko]

It would put an end to the absurd agony of my favorite sportsball team not winning squat for 30 years. That's it.

 

[Bobhaze]

The last time a Cowboys loss affected my life was SB XIII against Pittsburgh. I was 20 years old and later realized how silly it was to let any game mess with my zen. I’m disappointed after a loss but the outcome of a football game is such small potatoes in life.

 

[catiii]

Loss? Me and Billy Jo McAllister would jump off the Talahachee bridge.

 

[Risen Star]

I would be pretty happy for a couple of weeks then move on.

Now imagine how it is for actual fans.

 

[Aven8]

I have no idea……but I want that journey again. Lose today? Pissed as hell because I’m not ready for it to be over!

 

[calico]

It would be cool for a day or 2 then life would return to normal. I’m at my point in life where sports means very little to me anymore in the grand scheme of things. 5-10 years ago it would’ve had more weight in life.

 

[Bermystar12]

Impact my life? I got money invested that I don't know about?

 

[Pipelayer72]

You always hope they will win but it's never life changing if they don't. I love the Cowboys but you learn to take the good with the bad and move on. I'm always going to be a fan even if the Cowboys never win another SB. But they're going to win it this year so they're we go!

Now imagine how it is for actual fans.

Gatekeeping cowboys fandom. Gotta love this place.

 

[Miller]

Wouldn’t change my life at all since I’ve seen many since the 70s. What it might change is perception of some players. Think it might allow Jerry to go back to old Jerry where he goes nuts making moves etc because he got one his way and without Jimmy so basically the pressure is off.

 

[bigE79]

If I was 12,a win would be impactful cause I would have bragging rights at school..since I'm 58 now,a win,lose or draw won't impact my life at all..that doesn't mean I wouldn't be happy as hell to get #6,as it would shut up Steelers and pats fans..if we lose,I'll be pissed then move on.

0%.
I don’t bet on games so no monetary gain

It’s entertainment.

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

What I remember is that no matter how great the feeling is and it is great it never comes close to the feeling of suffering to get get one. Last time it was 14 years and now it's 27.

 

[Kingofholland]

I used to take sports much more serious and let it ruin my day, week, etc. However, over the years you take a different perspective. In the grand scheme of things sports is entertainment and though it can bring moments of excitement, it doesn't change anything in life for most fans, except temporary bragging rights.

Sure it would be dissapointing getting so close and losing a Super Bowl, but I would be proud of this team for finally getting back there and then move on.

I thought that was tied to Wentz’s fortunes.
