I cried tonight.

Your comparing your investment and what the games mean to you, to a player? Ha hah ha!

I wish Clayborn had one to, but he will get over it quick.

FYI, his dream was not to play for the Iowa Hawkeyes, but to play in the NFL, which he will realize soon.

You continually fail to realize that I said I didn't cry over the LOSS. It was Senior Day. That's the last time I'll ever see DJK or AC come out of the tunnel to the sound of Back in Black. The loss was disappointing, but that's never what gets me. I wasn't crying after we lost to Northwestern last year, either.

I'm only a couple years removed from high school, and I still vividly remember what it felt like when I realized it was all over for me. I empathize with the players.
 
Did anyone else almost shed a tear with Dan Gable at half time? It was hard not to when you saw the emotion on his face and realized how much he has done for the wrestling program and how much he truly loves this university.

I don't continually fail to realize anything. Crying over the loss or because it was Senior Day is well ridiculous. Your crying because you will never see DJK run out of the tunnel again? Guess what next year you will be cheering on some other Hawk and will complete forget about DJK. Time moves on, I guess you will figure that out as you grow up/get older.

My advise, toughen up, the world is a tough place.

There is a time and place to cry, as a fan at a football game is not one of them.

Yeah, I'm going to forget about guys like DJK. How's that logic working out for our linebackers?

It's not like I was bawling by any means. When I lost my last baseball game, I bawled. When I saw the seniors walk off the field and back into the tunnel, with some of the students applauding their effort, it brought back some of the emotions that I felt on that July night. That's all.

For my money, I don't think you owe anybody an apology for this.

What? I can't empathize with the seniors who just lost their last home game? I suppose AC is a p*ssy for crying after the Wisconsin game, right?

it's different when you're a player. anybody who's ever lost a high school playoff game in a heart breaking fashion knows those locker rooms are full of guys crying their eyes out.
 
mrolympia....that is 100% true....you put SO much into football and when your upset or have a terrible season like our hawks are having....its starts to build up inside of you....however, this season is not a total loss yet. Now if Minn beats us we dont deserve a bowl and we have regressed to the 06/07 levels
 
I slept last night. I'll probably sleep again tonight.
I haven't cried in I don't know how long. Decades.
 
We ran out of beer one hour outside of Iowa City and that made me shed a tear, luckily the next exit had a gas station
