[QUOTE="Do7, post: 886862, member: 13398"] Each are special in their own way. Blowing out teams gives the satisfying feel of demoralizing the opposing fanbase; especially when they talk so much trash and act like their team is so much better, only to be served some fresh humble pie as well as some crow. Now winning a competitive game, that is satisfying in its own right, but it does come with a bit of backlash. For instance you know you will hear Vikings, and especially Bears fans *****ing about the refs, and how we only won because the refs gave us a favorable call, yada yada yada. But watching our boys march down the field and win on a last second FG or TD and watch as the hope and joy evaporate from division fans eyes, and replaced to despair and disbelief. Mwa! It's such a satisfying feeling. But at the same time it's nerve wracking as hell, because of the uncertainty. I can't tell you how many times I was nervous due to how close the games were only for us to win at the end. It gives you a sense of relief, joy, and pride all at the same time. At times I would go on Youtube and see if there were reaction videos to these kind of losses, and have a laugh at their misery. Blowouts are kinda safe bets, unless you blow them out by a substantial margin like in the 60s or 70s, it's really not that memorable typically. Hard fought games are more high risks, but are usually more rewarding along with being more memorable as those are the types of games that we will be talking about years later down the road as opposed to blowouts. I'm not opposed to hard fought games as they certainly last a longer impact, but I'll go on the safe side and always take a blowout. [/QUOTE]
