I know exactly how that guy felt, even though I don't typically get that animated, have never painted my face and don't own any jerseys.

Leading up to that play, I had walked away from the couches my wife and boys were sitting on, around the one part of my sectional, and stood by myself as far off to the side as I could while still being able to watch. During the Vikings last drive of the game, I didn't utter a single word and as it was reaching the end, I silently thought for a few seconds, "I can't believe they're finally going to do it". This was proceeded by a never ending series of kicks to the gut, including the 12-man penalty, followed by the INT, the coin toss, and seemingly every single play/booth review in OT. After the FG I got up from the couch and walked upstairs to bed.

This is not a request for sympathy, but only someone that's been a diehard fan of a team that for 35 years has had brushes with greatness - only to fall short by the zaniest and most heart-wrenching methods at every turn - could possibly comprehend how that feels. I'm a firm believer in, "it's only sports", but that was a moment of utter agony that will forever be followed by poor memories that I wouldn't wish on anyone - not even a Packers fan.

I feel your pain. We want to say "it's only sports" to keep perspective, but those of us with true passion and love for the sport and our team still feel like we took a Beckum strike to the stones when something this gut-wrenching happens. It just seems like the sun shines a little brighter, the air is a little fresher, and the food tastes a little better after a huge win. After a tough loss the winter air seems a little colder and the work days seems a little longer.

I heard Favre and Peterson are going to open a bakery together in the offseason. It'll specialize in turnovers.
