Is It pointless to watch anything but the 4th qtr?

[Richmond Cowboy]

Seems like every game recently has been either:

1- We start off strong, looks like it’s going to be a blowout and they come back late and either we win or lose a close one.

Or

2- We look weak and defeated then come back to make it close in the end.

So really, what’s the point of getting too excited or too down during the first half?

If I were you and felt as sure as you do that things won't go any better against a team like the 49ers, I wouldn't tune in until the 2nd half. However, if you're anything like I am or how most of us are, you won't be able to resist watching the whole game. Are you really going to limit yourself to doing that? I'm thinking you'll watch the whole game, regardless . . . how do you respond to that? Be totally honest now, OK?

I watch the entire game whether we lose by 100 or lose by 100. I will never turn the game off early.

Perhaps some here don't watch the entire game and that's why they sound crazy when they hate on a player cause they seen 2 plays

Of course I will, however if we are up by 21 at halftime I won’t be puffing my chest out...

Everything is pointless if you break it down enough.

That’s what booze is for...

LOL -- thanks for your honesty, brotha! Evidently, you're not quite as convinced as you originally sounded that our Cowboys are doomed to continue performing as you'd have us believe. Like that crazy dude in "Dumb and Dumber" said, "so, you're saying there's a chance, huh?"

The last game, I knew it was pointless watching the game after we gave the ball back to Rodgers at the end (I just listened to the TV in the background since I knew exactly what was going to happen). STUPID, STUPID Cowboys...I would have taken my chances at driving the ball in from the 1 ft line after running down the clock.

We lost at the buzzer and haven't played in 2 weeks and you just want to watch the 4th quarter......smh.

The point is that it gives you reasons to drink!! Lol

Or, everything has a point, if you break it down enough. Hmmm....

I do this with NBA games. However, my interest level in the NBA dropped a bit even when my team was a superteam.

I hope theres also a scenario where we win by a 100.

Its not only about the destination, you have to enjoy the ride.

 

[Dallas_Cowboys50]

I always watch the whole game, but I never get excited and hoot n holler for every good play like I used to. NBA is same way, your team can go up 20 1st half and its almost guaranteed that even the worst teams will go on a run to get back to within striking distance...

 

[CF74]

They play to win the game...

Yep. That gives us something to discuss all offseason around here! Lol

 

[CowboyStar88]

I watch no matter what.. this year I just end up drunk by the 4th *sigh

This team drives me to drink a lot

 

[ShortRound]

ha, I want 4 quarters of stress and frustration

 

[Irvin88_4life]
