    :eek: Well? Do you care if it's big or if it's small [that's what she said]?

    At 17-0 last year, the Texans lost the Colts' game... but... I felt a bit uneasy about the 13-0 lead and then the 13-10.

    I still had hope. It's not just about the Texans, it's about all sports.

    In SOCCER, the most difficult score to keep is 2-1.

    In baseball, I've seen some bottom-of-the-ninth comebacks make the visiting team just look baffled, unable to do a thing about it besides just pitch the ball. :eek:

    ^ Well, then, talk about a golf lead, or a basketball lead, then? :eek:

    How about we ask the ones on the other end about how they like it (big or small)??

    That's what SHE said? :confused:
    Never did I hear anything remotely close to how "the smaller it is, the more exciting it is"... except for maybe in cell phones or central processing units. :eek:

    As long as a team's lead is big enough at the end that is all that matters.

    I think it's better when teams go back and forth with the lead, of course with my team ultimately on top. It's awesome when everyone gets all tense throughout the game/race/match. Probably bad for my heart in the future, but I like smaller ones.

    damn how many "that's what she said"'s did i just set myself up with?

    Smaller leads make for a better celebration when my team wins. Too bad it works inversely as well (i.e. brad "let's give poo-jolls some win" lidge).

    I always want to have a large one, but... I do agree that a small one is sometimes exciting, 'cuz I want that last shot to be the best one. ;)

    Also, if we take it further, I like that it comes down to whoever makes the last one IN wins. :eek:
    :eek: Negative, sir. I have my limits of per thread, per page, and per day of saying TWSS or annoying imma_drummer, which ever one comes first ;) .
