LOL. I knew what you meant. I was trying to get a "not me" denial across. Sorry that my facetiousness didn't come through.
And since I've admitted the sports movies trigger, I might as well admit my other trigger—musicals. Not every musical, of course. I'm not tearing up over
The Music Man, and unlike some,
The Sound of Music doesn't do it for me at all. But the final scene of
Carousel, on the other hand, gets me every time.
