Why do fans yell directions to the field or at the tv?

because your frustrations and emotions boil over and you just shout what is on your mind.

Is this my husband on TD??

Just caught up in the moment is all.

Maybe because most people are social creatures who derive entertainment and passion when watching their team? I have to question your mental capacity if you even have to ask this question.

I've never understood why people yell things while watching.

you just want me to hold inside "THAT WAS A FRICKING HOLD"...not going to happen...I would explode

I don't show my emotions to others. I process everything internally.

we're all different but, man, that'll eat you up inside. Nothing wrong with letting those around you know what you're feeling (using tact when appropriate, of course).

LOL, I don't know... but I do it ALL the time.

Hell, when on D I yell "ballllllll" when pass is thrown because it bugs the hell out of me when a pass is completed within inches of a DB's facemask and they never looked.

Bugs me even more that his teammates don't do it (sideline included). Yeah, probably wouldn't hear it anyway, but WTF. I can tell..... they can't hear me. Damn Deaf Valley.

Maybe you are a sociopath?

I prefer yelling things like "I'M DISPLEASED WITH THE PRODUCT ON THE FIELD"

and

"IF THINGS DONT CHANGE I'LL SPEND MY DISPOSABLE INCOME ON OTHER ACTIVITIES"

people around me hate it

Would you prefer a quiet Tiger Stadium?
