[QUOTE="katlong, post: 183387, member: 2490"] Great post, Boomer - I would add that we should remember that we are all fans, not players on this team and certainly not the coach, although we all like to be armchair QBs. We are in the stands because we do not have the physical ability to play the game or coach at that level (well, maybe some on this blog do, but the vast majority of us cannot make that claim - being a girl who only played flag football, I certainly have NO claim to fully understand the game from a player's perspective although I really try). [B]These are extraordinary people with extraordinary talent most of us can't fathom. [/B]But they are people - mere mortals - nonetheless. They are subject to injury, making mistakes, and having bad days, just like all of us - they are just on the main stage for everyone to pick apart and analyze, criticize, and second guess each and every move they make. I for one am glad that my every move at my job is not subject to that kind of scrutiny. :) I wholeheartedly believe that Boomer is right - the joy of winning is absent when the possibility of defeat is not present. Each week is a new opportunity. GO JACKETS! [/QUOTE]
