All year long, I've been cautiously optimistic about my Buffalo Bills. After they started the year 0-4, I pretty much lost all faith that the season would amount to anything.
Then, they started to turn it around. Suddenly, they had won six in a row and eventually they ended up 9-6 heading into the last game of the season. A win (with some outside help), and they could actually make the playoffs for the first time since I started really being a fan. When I was younger, I would like them, but mainly just because everyone in my family did.
Like I said, I'd been cautiously optimistic during the win streak, trying not to get too up or down no matter what happens.
Then this week, I'm looking forward to the game all week long. The Bills are hot, no one can stop them, and I think they can actually do it and make the playoffs despite their terrible start. Plus, the team they'll be playing will be putting in their back-ups since the game means nothing to them. Shouldn't be a problem.
And, of course, when it's all on the line, they lay an egg. I would've been the happiest guy in the world if Buffalo had won today, but no. Now I'm miserable.
And I know it's all because I was looking forward to it. Seriously. If I would have been as nonchalant about this game as I'd been for all of the other ones, they would've won. But because I really wanted the win, of course they lose.
I hate being a sports fan sometimes...

You watch football?
Pro football sucks. I'm no fan of any sports, but I'll watch college football games once in a while. Like how UT won the Rose Bowl yesterday. That was a good game.
Also, the Bills haven't been any good since the early '90s when Dallas kicked their butts in the Super Bowl every time.
Guuuh... HAL JORDAN!!! (2 drinks, bitchaz!!!)

Utah went undeafeted last night, first time a school from my conference went to a BCS bowl. And it was my school. Woo and such.
Also I still like pro football, I just get bored with watching a 3 hour game so instead I just check on whether or not my team won the next day on the net.

Oh shut up, you sound like the BDK guy, but you don’t have a online comic to make us read your whining…

It could be worse. At least I don't write bad online poetry about it.
"Depression.
Darkness.
Red, white, navy blue, nickel gray.
Colors of failure.
These...
depress me.
And the
blade
cuts
my heart in pieces....
Depression."

Ooh. Yeah.
How did explaining it to your parents go?

Better than expected. I'll just have to drive around with a dented van for a while.

That's good.
Any word from the parked car people?

Yeah, she gave me a call about 40 minutes ago. I'm just glad I have insurance.

It could be worse, you could be a Cubs fan.
