Have you ever cried over a sporting event?
Just curious. I never knew anyone even considered it until I found this board and several of you said you do. (Not passing judgment at all, I just have honestly never heard of it).
The only time I can recall getting emotional over a sporting event was January 1996, we all know what I'm referring to. I walked out my parents basement and was yelling outside and throwing stuff for probably 20 min. Then I realized "Nobody can hear me and my ears are now frozen". Sports are, as Don Fortune once said, the Toy Department of life. Anyway: do you cry over sports? Well punk: do ya? |

That explains the smell. The next step is getting rid of it.

No but I was once pissed off enough to throw an iphone like a high speed fast ball. Good thing I had the insurance.

I'm not a crier, but the Olympics will get me too.
Otherwise, I cried at the Diamondbacks/Yankees World Series. Not for any major sense of history. Adored the team and all but it was only like 3 years old. But I don't know, everyone was crying, and hugging eachother. Friend and stranger alike. It was the most electric atmosphere I've ever been in. That tingly feeling is why I chase a sports high.

Poll doesn't match the question being asked. Poll fail.
And to answer the question, NO, I have not. BUT, if the Chiefs win a superbowl I might.

The only time I can remember actually crying over sports was a doozy. The first time I tried out for a select/travelling team in soccer and didn't make it. Shook my world. In retrospect I didn't do all that bad, but they didn't know me from Adam. I was trying out for a downtown KC team [KCP&L], coming from 30 miles south in the 'burbs.
That was the fall and I was on a traveling team the next spring, but I spent a good 1/2 hour bawling and bitching to my parents. Of course, I was 12 at the time. EDIT: Read the rest of the thread, forgot about the Olympics. The sprints get me every time, going back to FloJo, most recently with Usain.

I cried when Dirk Nowitzki got his ring. The man is one of the best sports role models in the world and was constantly shit on for it, largely because of the sport he played in. He was doubted his whole career and he shoved it in everyone's face once he beat the undefeateable Miami Heat. It was redemption in its greatest form to beat the team that got reffed into a win against the Mavericks in 2006. Very emotional playoffs that year. Loved every minute of it.

I teared up pretty good at the Wild Card game. That was so surreal. An absolute roller coaster of emotions the entire game, and it ended in a way that no one could have written up.
