I've always been a huge fan. I've bought the shirts, hats, jerseys, license plates, etc. I've spent money on Sunday Ticket, and have been to a couple games. I, along with I'm sure a lot of you, have invested a lot of time and money in this franchise.
But recently, maybe it's me just getting older, I've stopped giving a shit. Really, it makes my perspective on things so much better. I have my own life to worry about. Why be stressed about something that we as fans have no control over? Don't get me wrong, I still root for our guys, but the loss' don't hurt as much. I encourage all of you to do the same. Don't worry about this silly game that has no effect on our lives. Enjoy your own life. And if we win, great. If not, move on. I can't stand a homer that has blinders on. To me, there's a difference. I'm just asking that before you go jumping off a cliff, take a little perspective and remind yourself: its just a game.
WHO DEY
Yes. This is exactly where I am with it for the first time in my life and the water is fine! It's so liberating.
