I blame my emotional reactions to losses like this on my dad. He was a great man and has been dead for almost 40 years now. When I was a kid and his team lost, he lost it. I didn’t understand it as a kid. But, one thing he could do – is go our on a walk – gain some perspective and get over it.
Utah lost a football game. It’s not a huge deal in the big scheme of things. I heard a 10 year girl in Salt Lake was hit by a car and killed yesterday. That is huge and very sad. Right now, our friends in North and South Carolina have been washed from their homes. Some have lost their homes, others have lost loved ones. This is a huge deal. We lost a football game and I let my emotions take over for a few hours. Sometimes I attach my emotions way too much to a team. It really make no sense, but I it seems to be in my DNA.
I have lowered my expectations for this team. I will try to watch and enjoy. I am glad we have a bye next week, so I can focus on the important things in life.
