You think you have a tough time digesting this?

Think of the players, especially the guys who are nice backups but likely won't have lengthy careers. This might have been it for them. All the hours they've put in since April. The coaches and support staff who spend 16+ hours at the facility for a majority of the year. To know you've done enough to make it to the Super Bowl and have it taken from you, not by a missed tackle by your teammate, but by an incompetent or biased referee.

I'll be over this by tomorrow, but, some of those guys will ruminate on this for a lifetime. I feel awful for them the more I think about it.

Think of the players
We have plenty of fans that think they care more than the players, so there's that.

Here is the truth in this:

The players play. They had say in the outcome. They fought. I bet Drew is more concerned with the 1st and 10 to MT than the 3rd and 7 to TLL.

A fan has no power or ability to alter the outcome. They live through the actions of others. They are helpless hoping and wishing. A player is resilient and will work harder to be better. A fan can do nothing. Its a helpless stance


but to broadstroke either is wrong. Some players will brush it off, some players it will linger. Same goes for fans. I will be sick for weeks. I know people who are already over it

Yeah, I can't imagine being a guy near/at the end of his career and having that happen. Or a fringe player. Like imagine Griffin yesterday. You join the team. You contribute. This might be your only playoff run. And then that happens. Awful.

There are and have been ex players on TV and radio all morning talking about how fricked up the call was and how devastated the players and coaches must feel today and how this will sting for a long time.

You think Drew Brees doesn't care because he didn't get a Tigerdroppings account in order to rant about the loss?

I feel really bad for Drew. His window of opportunity is closing fast.

Exactly. Some people may think that players have millions of dollars to wallow in and cushions the blow, but many don't. This was it. And, for those with millions there are many where the Superbowl is far more desirous. You don't think Marino would have paid back some of his earnings for one more shot at the Superbowl? His never winning is always mentioned when he is brought up.
