I tend to think with my heart first before my brain so I understand the trauma, but DAMN.. hehehe... no need to get stressed over a game unless you got a LOT of money riding on the game ;).

I'm happy they did because you seemed a bit out of it for a sec there. I'm a thinker, so I only get like that over a game (well, not the cringing and covering of the head) if it's something out of the ordinary happening (like when the Ravens won the Superbowl - go hometown team that I don't otherwise acknowledge!) so I can understand a bit where you're coming from. Also, come visit. There's a whole world out here. :-) If you tried that in front of me I'd have to shake you or something after a few minutes of it. REALLY glad they won. Joking Tony is fun!

I can relate to what you are saying. Syracuse tends to get up by 20 points and then lose their instinct to kill, and can actually lose the game, many times in the last few seconds. Talk about a stomach ache! They can also come from behind and win, though rarely. We found it so frustrating to watch that we had to stop. By the time they won the 2003 NCAAs, we had stopped watching entirely, but did watch the final game. My husband used to say that it would be good for them to lose to a team they ought to beat, because it made them less cocky, and would help them in the long run. BTW - seeing as much as a squirrel get hit by a car can ruin my whole day. My husband and I are Syracuse Orange Men Basketball fans (the ‘Cuse is his alma mater). I can relate to what you are saying.

I have tried many times to get into it. I've had the game explained to me on many occasions, and still I just don't get it. Nothing about it makes my toes tingle, not like hockey. Maybe it's a "Yankee" thing...I've observed that football is THE thing down here in the south, but in the north we also love us some hockey. Hmm...Guess that means I'll just be widow for football season again. My husband is in love with football. He is a complete and total Patriots fan. Oh well. I am glad you enjoyed the game. Nail biting is just one of those great things about sports. Football is just one of those things that is totally lost on me. I have tried many times to get into it.

What an exciting game indeed! Congratulations! I think this is going to be a really good season. I figured you'd make an entry on it. Wallgreens has Maloxx on sale. Should I pick you up a couple of bottles? I listened to the game today (I told you I would cheer on your team this year) while I was putting together a new computer work station in my study.
