Will you cry?

Football - 90% sure I cry. (Almost cry just thinking about it)

Basketball - 10%. (I love basketball, 2nd favorite sport... dunno if I cry, unless it's a 3 at the buzzer to win by 1)

Baseball - 0% (just not a big baseball guy, would love a chip here tho...if nothing else to get the monkey off our backs)

What say you?

Cry? Do any of you actually cry over sporting events, good or bad? Come on, man.

Even though I played College baseball, not at State, I wouldn't for baseball. Basketball and or football would definitely be a possibility. Only other time I cried over game, was the Sid Bream slide into home in 92 vs the Pirates. I was 12.

I may have had a sad tear in 97 when Peterson made the sliding catch, just across the goaline, for the 2 pt conversion to beat us 15-14.

I haven't. But with me, as I'm sure everyone else on this board, my emotional investment in MSU sports is tremendous. Probably more than it should be, but whatever.

I cried in November when my Cubs won the World Series. Yes there is crying in baseball. To answer your question. Yep I would. I'd probably cry if softball, women's basketball or volleyball won too. When I was up at state I supported all teams

I know more than a couple of men who died waiting on an MSU national championship. In any sport.

I will probably be the same way. I could not tell you exactly how I'd feel if it happened.

Hard to say. Its a definite possibility, though. I tear up sometimes on freaking Senior Day.

We're getting close to competing in several sports. Maybe John Cohen is the man at the helm when it happens (funny, I probably said that when he was hired as head coach). Women's basketball could realistically do it this year. That wouldn't count as a big 3, but it would be awesome nonetheless.

I don't know if I would cry but if we ever win it all in football I won't sleep for 2 or 3 days. Be afraid I would wake up and find out it was all just a dream!!

NO. You take celebratory shot. And if you do, you blame it on the shot after throwing up.

My wife cried when we made it to the finals in baseball. I was confused but teared up a little when the bacon grease popped me in the face.

Hoss, the entire existence of this board is due to sporting events, specifically Mississippi State University ones. Right or wrong, most that come to this tiny niche of the vast WORLD Wide Web have done so by choice, for it is an important part of their lives. Peddle your overcompensating machismo elsewhere.

I would cry after victories in NC for football & baseball out of shear joy...for many reasons.

I'd cry the next day from dry heaving after all the Wendy's, Woodford Reserve and Sothern Pecan had been ejected

No way I'd cry.....I'll be stunned but won't cry.

Edit: Only way I cry is if my son was leading the MSU team that wins the NC.

Edit again: And made the game winning play for the NC.

Edit again: F Peterson and Patridge!!!!! Still get mad when I think about that play.

I knew some folks that cried when we got to #1 lol. A lot of that has to do with maybe a parent or loved one that maybe he passed and never got to see it.

I didn't cry but I talked ALOT of ****.

I teared up during the Audurn game once it was out of reach in 14 because I knew what it meant. I didn't even realize I did it until my wife mentioned it to me, it was just a natural thing. Then I looked around the stadium and realized I was in good company. So football I would say yes. I remember getting chills when the intro for the first game against ucla when it really hit home with me that we aren't just in the ws anymore...the dawgs are actually playing for the nc. I really think it would take football for tears though.

For you guys who say you won't cry or come close to it you're lying to yourself.

I was at the NFC championship game when the Saints beat the Vikings and I was hugging high-fiving and crying like everyone else in the Superdome was.

100% yes on all three plus women's bb and softball. If you wouldn't you don't really care.

I dunno. I shed a few tears when the Cubs won the NLCS but not the World Series. The first was the big hump for me, I was still numb when they won the Series.

I'm sure I would shed a few tears for an MSU NC in one of the majors and celebrate like hell afterwards... But I'm a sentimental old fart.

I don't think I would cry if any of that happened. I would definitely be euphoric.

100% of Ole Miss fans would cry, though. That goes without saying.

I probably would in baseball. Have followed baseball since the mid 70's and we have come so close several times only to be disappointed. We are a baseball school and I think that is where the first Championship should come from.

I would hold it together just fine until they play a clip of Jack's "Wrap It" call

For football, probably. Baseball, maybe but doubtful. Basketball, they could turn the Hump into an indoor goat roping/monster truck arena and not even play basketball anymore and I wouldn't miss it at all.

So you cry over sporting events. Gotcha.
