Default Re: Would your favorite team winning a world championship bring tears.

I didn't tear up when the Cowboys won, won, won. (Am a die hard fan) If they won again I wouldn't tear up but I would drink.

I didn't tear up when the Stars won. (Could careless, though I may go to more hockey games than any other sport) If they won again I wouldn't tear up, I would turn to the next page of Sports Day in the Dallas Morning News.

I don't know since it hasn't happened but the Mavs would make me emotional, there have been a lot of ups and downs and I have stuck with them through ALL of them...even when they were the worst team in sports.

If the Rangers won I would think it was incredible simply from a liklihood standpoint. I wouldn't cry but I would be pumped. I guess being around baseball has numbed me or something I dunno, I just don't get emotional over teams winning but I do get excited for great series' and great games and GW HR's and all the drama...it doesn't really matter the team actually. I am more of a fan of the sport I guess.

No, I didn't cry when the Pistons won. I was really excited but not emotional like that.

I did cry when Webber called the [censored] timeout. But I was 11. And it turns out, they weren't even legit. That still makes me a little sad, because of where it happened in my life.

Maybe if the M's won the WS.

If the Cougs ever won a National Championship in football or basketball, then for sure. Not too concerned about that happening most likely. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I think so,

I'm a Cubs fan.

I agree with the sentiment here. If Oregon won a national title in football or basketball I wouldn't stand a chance. Unfortunately, we don't stand a chance to do either.

I cried when Sevilla won the UEFA Cup, hell I cried when I was listening to the pregame on the radio and the players came out. If they won the Spanish league it would be the same.

I certainly would have cried had the Giants won the WS against the Angels, and was on the verge with the loss. Not sure I would today though.

Definitely teared up when the Red Sox won.

Didn't for any of the Pats wins, however.

For some reason I remember crying when the Lakers lost those couple of times in the 1990s to the Jazz. But none of the Laker titles brought me to tears. I think I would have gotten a little teary eyed if the Bears won this year.

I think what happened to the Mets last year that if they won in '07 it could happen.

If the Jaguars make it to the superbowl it would be close, a win, its happening.

Rutgers winning a Big East title would make me extremely excited.

Kutztown(PA) winning the PSAC, I would cry, a national title, I think I'd cry from now until I turn 30. But, I don't think that should count as we will never win our conference.

I got emotional when the Rangers won the cup, but I was like 8. I remember my dad keeping me home from school to watch the games simply because he said it will probably never happen again.

I cry each year the Yankees dont win the WS.
