It's Not About Winning or Losing...

[Frezo]

It’s not about winning or losing, it’s about…

…eating homemade chili during the game with so many Jalapeños, so much garlic and so much Mongolian Fire Oil that you can’t close your eyes because the trapped fumes burn your retinas.

…swearing like a Sicilian hit man with Tourette ’s syndrome at the guy that just cut you off on 495S because he’s obviously trying to beat YOU to the stadium.

…being so cold at the game that you’re afraid to yell because your lips might shatter.

…buying a $2500 TV, $750 sound system, $500 DVR, $1000 hi-def Blue Ray recorder and then feeling like throwing the nearest destructive object at the whole mess after Brady throws an interception.

…bringing garlic, holy water, wooden stakes and a tome of medieval chants to the game in case you run into Fireman Ed.

…drinking so much beer that you start looking at catheters on Ebay.

…signing up for Sunday Ticket and realizing that you hate every other team except the Pats.

…losing power 10 minutes before the game and becoming convinced that between yourself and Gil & Gino that the Pats are playing three separate games at the same time.

That is why I like to hold a pillow during games, if I throw it there will be minimal damage.
