I love my team, and when they lose I'm definitely bummed out for a few hours on Sunday. But it doesn't carry over to my love life, my job, or my relationships with other people.
Another thing to consider is this guy wrote this thing on either Sunday or Monday, with the sting of the loss fresh in his head. I think calling him really pathetic is a bit of a stretch. Who on this site hasn't felt absolutely awful, whether it be for days or just hours, about the Redskins struggles over the years??

The difference is that we don't write about it. It's better to stuff all these emotions down and then take them out on your loved ones at an inappropriate moment.
