Default A Major GFY to the "these blowouts are boring!" Crowd:

I thought it was stupid and short-sighted then, I think it's stupid and short-sighted now. I enjoy the blowouts, and I HATED this game tonight. It's not nearly as fun or enjoyable. So please, for the love of God, smarten up and leave that nonsense back in your treehouse with the other casual fans.

KFFL beckons. Go.

Games like this, regardless of the fact I know the final outcome, are almost impossible for me to watch a second time.

I think everyone here experienced at least one heart attack tonight.

Blowouts are easier as a fan, but I have to admit I found myself in a flashback to 2003 when we won a ton of games just like this one tonight. I have to admit, it gets the blood flowing and it can be fun....as long as we win.

That said, I wouldn't mind a breather either.

I completely agree. I love blowouts. Watching excruciating games against mediocre (at best) competition is not fun; it's not thrilling, it's not satisfying, it's not exciting. It's just a win that feels like a loss. I only hope that there aren't any long-term injuries from this excercize in needless suffering.

Yeah, I could live with a nice 3- or 4- score win next week. I'd enjoy watching the game sitting instead of pacing and cursing and disturbing my family.

I'd much rather have a blowout then a nailbiter like tonight.

It doesn't say what's the best team, which has the most talented players, which teams has the biggest payroll, smallest payroll. It stands for the team that played the best in that season. Put the number on there for that year. And the next year we start all over again everybody is at the same point."

Ditto. Seriously these last two weeks have stressed me out as a fan. I hate close games this one was the worst of all season though. Too close especially with that hail mary. Don't want to see another like this again this season, or at least until the playoffs.
