I feel exactly the same way.I'm 48 and have been a fan as far back as I can remember. As a kid, the only time I was allowed to eat in front of the TV was when the falcons were playing. My step father installed an antenna on our roof , just to get the Chattanooga station that carried the game on Sundays because it was blacked out on Atlanta stations.
I know it's only a game, but I'm tired of being let down. I'm not sure I will even watch next year because I do get so emotionally involved. I'm gonna fish on Sundays next year!
