Nice post Dirtbag! It's really hard to explain the emotions that go with being a fan. I don't know why I act the way I do, but I go absolutely nuts when our team is winning, and either get mad as hell or get depressed when we lose. Maybe it's living vicariously through the team. I almost get high when one of our guys knocks the snot out of someone or we score. Part of the reason I loved Sean Taylor so much I guess. Even though I don't know these guys personally, it's almost like I do. When Sean died it was like losing a family member. I couldn't figure out why I was upset as deeply as I was. It really hurt. I've been following these guys for a lot of years and even though I get upset with some of the things they do and threaten to just say the hell with them, I really can't see that ever happening. Once you're in it with the Skins, you're in it for life. Just the way it is I guess. Nice post man.
