I'll let you know when it happens. J/K.
I think a lot of it depends what is going on with your life and how busy you are. I thought this year was going to be particularly bad because I just got laid off last Tuesday. Having that happen kinda ruined the whole week for me and then the game was tortuous to watch and well it just sucked. A ****ty ending to a ****ty week.
But I have a 6 year old son now that I didn't have back in 2007 and it's hard to be depressed around him. After the end of the game I yelled a little and walked around a little bit and I came back in the living room and my son was inside the little blanket fort he made while watching the game. He had a sad look on his face but I realized it was because he felt bad for me more than anything. I decided that maybe I should set a good example for him that in the big scheme of things sports aren't really that important. So we went outside and shot some hoops and we both felt a lot better. He gave me a hug and told me it's ok Dad, at least we won last year.
Sometimes I wonder who's the mature one LOL.
In other news if anyone knows of a company looking for a Salesforce Admin either in the Tampa area or remote let me know!
Me too. That 4th Superbowl really helped me get over all those other losses. Deflategate does make me want to see TB win that 5th SB now though.i was over it by monday but i will say 2007 took me a few months
Same here. I get over the losses pretty quickly now. As much as I love watching football, there is always some relief when the season ends whether it ends in a win or loss. I spend 5 months of the year rooting for the Patriots and need to focus on other things when the season is over. This year we are renovating the kitchen after 30 years of marriage so that will keep me busy.2007 set the bar for "big loss" so high... in order to live with that one I've pulled back some. I enjoy the wins, love the team, re-arrange my life to watch every game, but I just can't get that upset over a loss, because it doesn't get close to a "big loss".
Been over it since Sunday night.
Winning the SB last year helps a lot. If Pats didn't win the SB last year wouldn't be over it for at least a week.
If you want to see a guy who is in rough shape go check out El Pres' blogs and twitter. Said he threw up in his sleep last night because he was having nightmares of the videos and screenshots of Gronk being open on the 2 point conversion.
