re: How nervous do you get during your team's football games?

I have gotten a lot better over the years (generally because I became numb to all the shitty play), but there was once a point when I could not eat during games because I was so nervous. I also once had a phase where I refused to watch my team kick the ball off because I was scared the other team was going to return it. My father used to change the channel during key third down plays when we were on defense.

I pace the floor uncontrollably, and the only time I sit down is during commercial breaks or halftime.

Also, another bad/stupid habit I have is to say "this is a CRUCIAL third down" on every fricking 3rd down.
