It’s interesting. I’m 47 so like many on here been there done that and try so hard to minimize the hope but seeing Josh do his thing and the D actually make stops they got me. They drew me in! Actually holding them to a 59 yard FG in my mind was a win. Sure they hit it but I thought “hey the s-birds are desperate and got lucky!”
Then comes the decision to kick a FG after the miscue throw. Done!
My son, 13 like so many that haven’t lived long enough to REALLY know about life believed the whole game. Poor bastard! But what do you do?!? Tell him don’t fall in love? Sure. Sure. Even at 47 despite ALL the years and ALL the games ….they got me. Those fickle soulless mistresses - all of them!
I think I’m still talking about football…
