Do you get emotional?

Question

I am sitting here, just finished watching the Big Brown Triple Crown special...basically a summary of all past 11 Winners and then those that were "so close" in the past few years.

I was blubbering like a baby, with tears streaming down my face...and my Kids (dogs to many) were sitting here going "What is wrong, Momma?" HA!!

Now I am blowing my nose after all that crying...(TMI maybe? hehe!)

So, do you get emotional during the races - or watching on TV?

Answer 1

I start to cry whenever I hear the 1973 Belmont call of "Secretariat is widening now, He's moving like a Tremendous machine!"

Yes, I cry whenever I see the greats race.  I also can't watch the end of the 1980 olympic hockey game between the soviets and the US without crying.  "Do you believe in miracles!?"  Hehe, I'm starting to cry now!

So it's natural... it proves you have feelings ;o)

Answer 2

Yes,I sure do!! I get very excited and I get sad too. You are a normal woman. There is nothing wrong with being emotional. Some of us are just more emotional than others.  Enjoy the race today!! I hope that it is safe for all.

Answer 3

Yeah I get emotional.

This exactly why the PETA fools disgust me so.

To think that the people that own these horses, exercise these horses, ride them, train them, groom them and shovel the poo out of their stalls don't abolutely love these animals is just ridculous.

I'm a little upset that Big Brown hasn't really faced anyone decent since the Derby. This isn't how a TC winner should be crowned.

He's a d**n fine horse - don't get me wrong - but this is a dismal year and a good horse is going to be immortalized among some of the sports true greats.

I'd actually like to see him get beat because of that. After the Derby I was rooting for a TC winner (which is rare for me) but after that c**p Preakness field and this c**p Belmont field it just isn't right.

Answer 4

I get excited about the races and upset when something bad happens.  I really cry like a baby when I watch Animal Cops.  I can't watch shows like that any more.
