I can appreciate the attempts at tempering the passionate zeal but don't some people do that all season long?

For now we hear "it's preseason"

Week 4 "it's too early, we have a long way to go"

Week 9 "lets see if we can keep this up first"

Week 13 " we need to stay healthy before ill buy in"

Week 17 "playoff football is different from regular season football"

After we win the Super Bowl "yea, but can we three peat?"



Here is the rub, if the overly enthusiastic are right then you are headed for an I told you so, if they are wrong and we tank the season, well.... You just missed your opportunity to enjoy what could be the only enjoyable part of it.

A small % of people never learn how to enjoy anything.


Now, if you don't mind, I am going to go watch how good we looked against the Raiders..... again.
