Nerves: LSU Football

Do you guys find yourself more nervous while at the game, or while watching it on CBS?
Personally, I find it way more nerve racking while watching it on CBS watching all of the pregame BS and all...

Nerves: LSU Football
Something I've had to battle my entire history of following the Tigers. Grew up listening on radio with my family in the early 60's. I've just accepted that nerves are a part of my LSU experience. Sometimes during close games, I go to my car and listen to Hawthorne's call knowing I DVR the games.
With that said, 2 totally different experiences and I would have to say tailgating and seeing a game Live cuts the edge somewhat.

The CBS coverage and especially the intro music makes me petty nervous.

No comparison, I have CAD and in person Tigers or Saints, no nitrates required, watching on TV no matter what the score, I'd be in the emergency room by the end of the first quarter if I followed the instructions. Being at the game is much less stressful.

On TV for sure. When I'm in TS, I have the utmost confidence that we'll win.

Baseball makes me more nervous than football.

I get more anxious watching it on TV.

I feel just as nervous either way, but at least when I'm at home I can walk out of the room if I get too worked up. At a game when it's going badly and I can't really walk out and get totally away from the game, I can usually only pick at my fingernails or something.

Definitely TV. When I do get to make it down to TS, I always feel we are gonna win. Seen some real abortions in that stadium, but, since 2000, nothing but success.

1. Radio (while heading home from vacation or something - as we all know, can be the best/worst feeling in the world because of what's visually unknown)
2. TV (for whatever reason, I find espn games more nerve-racking than cbs)
3. Tiger Stadium (like others, you can't help but to feel confident and even cocky)

I'm never nervous in tiger stadium. When I'm there I feel we can never lose.
When there's a slim chance of winning I always think we are going to come back... And most of the time we do.
