re: What was your most depressing day as a sports fan?

1/9 sucked pretty bad for a variety of reasons. The game was a summation of probably the biggest scar on Miles' tenure thus far-- completely fricking over a player who had shown tremendous resolve over his career. Moreover, it's very arguable our defense was one of the best ever and better than the one Bama fielded, but there's no real way to know since Bama essentially went up against Reggie Ball in Game 2.

I also got offered 1000+ for my ticket and turned it down, and afterwards was stuck with girls who were still deadset on going to Bourbon (not for long). The silver lining is that the game confirmed the maturation process for me with respect to sports and made me realize how fricking stupid people are about it. I also learned to feel sorry for Bama fans, as well as a lot of LSU fans who take it all so seriously. I enjoy college football a lot, but god damn is it a stupid setup.
