But if they had lost this game I may have just curled up into a fetal position and died. Six years ago (my God that went by quickly) I remember going upstairs from my man cave and screaming to my wife that the F-ing Bengals gave a playoff game to the F-ing Steelers. Getting that monkey off our back is such a relief that I don't even care what happens next week (although a win would be awesome). God Bless Joe Burrow and his team. Yes it's his team. He's the leader and I believe we will have many more playoff wins (Super Bowls) under him. WHO F-ing DEY.
I've literally never witnessed a playoff win and I've been a fan for nearly 30 years.
Throw in that I have covid, an ongoing heart issue and my uncle and 2 family friends died this week, and that may have played into it as well. Felt good.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
