I guess I have been spoiled, because I forgot for a while, what losing felt like. Now I
remember all to well. One game shouldn't mean this much, but to be honest, as a long
time saints fanatic, I think there will always be a part of me that always sees things
like this as "half empty". Waiting for the other shoe to fall. Preaching the apocolypse
after one loss. Now I'm sitting here expecting the worse outta this, and it sucks!

I'm sorry guys. I wish I could break this thought pattern, but I have had my superbowl
heart broken so many times. I think I need therapy.

Dude, we gave the game away. To a team fighting for their own lives. Not to make excuses, but injuries played a factor in the defense and the offense was just plain FLAT.

I don't know if a loss is ever a "good" thing, but it will definitely fire the team up for the playoffs. Besides, if we face the 'girls again, we'll be healthy and they will cry.
