No need to turn on SportsCenter
I'll admit it, I fell asleep right after halftime. Yes, it was the Packers on Monday Night but I still have a sleep schedule to stick too. My morning schedule usually includes a bit of Sportscenter before the local and national news. Today, Facebook said it all. The Packers lost.
Sure it was controversial, and the name calling was on every other post. A friend reminded us that we should be thankful it's not a soccer game. If we were in other parts of the world buildings may be burning and the refs? I don't think they'd be around to see another game.
Ah, a game. At the end of the day it's just a game. The world still went on after the Broncos beat the Pack in the Super Bowl in the late 90s and the loss to the Giants last year did not adjust the Mayan calendar.
I view it as a game. Am I a fan? Sure. Am I going to let this loss alter my daily living? Nope.
How are you faring this morning Packer fans?

I think it's time for all union members in the state of Wisconsin to show solidarity with the NFL officials union by boycotting all NFL games until the labor dispute is settled.
That means not going to the games or even watching on TV or listening on the radio.
Solidarity forever.

You aren't much of a fan if your "sleep schedule" can't be altered for one night out of the year. Are you an infant?

I've never even heard of SportsCenter before now.
