I answer your question accurately and that's what you post.  

'Bout right.

Basically, where people might have labeled the Braves' 1 WS title in a 14-year  run of division titles as being a big choke job, it's actually just more evidence that the postseason is a series of coinflips.

It doesn't hurt at all.  You're a baby kitten.

Wife is a Rangers fan, so she's happy.  That can only benefit me.  Best of all there will be no game 7 Saturday night interfering with the footballz. 

My cousin's kid goes to a private school in Houston where one of her classmate's is Eovaldi's son.  I saw some photos on FB where all the kids and parents were sporting "Eovaldi 17" jerseys and had made a bunch of posters in support of him and the Rangers.  All I could think of was how rough that had to be on a bunch of people I know are Astros fans.

I don't lose my mind over it, it's just a bizarre combination of a long regular season and insanely small sample size in the postseason.  
It's not prudent.

I don't lose my mind over it,

Eh....might as well, I say.  It is sports fandom after all.

You know that Fansville commercial this year where they're all melting down and going crazy and the sheriff finally says settle down, it's the first play of the game?  That more or less describes me internally every time we miss a tackle, fumble, etc.

Yeah, I try not to watch Gators games around other people (much easier here in AZ, lol).  I don't want to chit-chat, don't want to be distracted, and don't want other people to see my reactions.
