[QUOTE="weeds, post: 528824, member: 39"] Deal is, at the beginning of the season, we're only given 16 "for sure" games. I'm not about to waste any of that 4 months pissing and moaning and looking for a silo to jump off of in utter Packerfan desperation. Logic in this sense has nothing to do with "the game" in the first place. "Playing the odds..." has nothing to do with "the game" neither. If it did ... 2010 and the ensuing playoff run was the most illogical happenstance I've ever witnessed. In any event, I'm not about to get into a pi$$ing match with anyone wanting to cash in the season -- all I will say is that Jupiter can indeed align with Mars, Southpaw ... it's already happened. Lightning striking twice? It's happened. Uphill battle...you betcha. The best advice I can give to the young guys here and in the 'chat' who have blown gaskets weekly is to not watch the game if it's going to make your head blow up. My boss and I share a coaching background sort of ... though neither at a high level - he coached high school basketball, I coached grade school football, we are complete opposites. He stopped watching the games due to the "exploding head syndrome". He tuned in on Thanksgiving and ruined the family room carpeting with splattered brain matter (speaking figuratively here guys) and will once again find something to do out in the garage for 3 hours. Even though he is a friend of mine, I tell him point blank that fans with psychological makeups like his are all too willing to tell you what's wrong and who is to blame. In summation, when you're given only 16 kicks at the cat in a season, that type of built-up angst and anger will only accomplish one thing -- make for a miserable life. Anyway ... some folks need to check out whatever is on FX, Spike or Hallmark...or...CBS usually has some sort of NFL offering where there is no emotional investment. Anyway, bring on the game. Go Pack! Our guys may be a steaming pile of dog crap right now -- but they're [U][B]OUR[/B][/U] steaming pile of dog crap. :) [/QUOTE]
