I'm sitting steady at #4. I've conceded defeat and realized I'm not going to wake up and have it be the 3rd. Now as I think about it depression just creeps in. #5 is a long time coming.

When I came to work yesterday morning, I told people I was on a 24-48 suicide watch (kidding of course)..........today I came to work and said the watch was over.

I still have anger and depression over it.

And I refuse to watch ESPN or any other sports/news coverage this week. Just not ready to go there.

Maybe in a few weeks when this starts to blow over in the media, I can return to some of the programs I like to watch (PTI, Around the Horn, etc).

I hear that and I'm with you. This is going to sting a while.

I am in the 6th stage of grief. That is the stage where you kick every GIANTS fan you can in the sack! GO PATS! I STILL LOVE YOU GUYS, even though you ripped my heart out and fed it to Bill Buckner! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm somewhere between 3 (Bargaining) and 4 (Depression). More toward 4.

It's gonna be long time before I get to 5.

i think i can get to 5 eventually (not for a while) but im not sure i'll ever 100% be over this loss
it's not like we were 14-2 and lost the sb, and a win next yr will heal it
(similar to 04 redeeming 03 for the sox)
no, we had a chance at something special
and chances are we'll never have that opportunity again

Tell you right now, no free agent signing or draft pick is going to make this feeling go away. The offseason just isn't going to be the same this year. I won't be satisfied until the final seconds tick away to a victory in the Super Bowl.

but even if we do that (while losing at least one game during the regular season) won't you still wish we seized the opportunity to be perfect?

I dont know if the 5 stages are supposed to happen independently of eachother. But the anger has subsided, depression has been there since the end of the game. That is starting to improve as well. But everytime I see a Giants photo or happen to catch ESPN, it comes back. The photos of the parade made me gag.

Acceptance, dont think its gonna happen soon.

Absolutely. As great as a Superbowl victory in the future will be, there will be a little corner of me that will think back to what might have been this year.
