is the TV character I identify with most. He's probably the only person who has a more extreme emotional reaction to a Bucs loss than I do. Seriously. When the Bucs have a losing season, like this one, I get all shaky and emotionally exhausted after every loss. Usually, I have to take a nap in order to recuperate. It usually takes me about half an hour to accept their loss, like the referees are going to call everyone back out because of a problem with the clock or something. Its really odd. I don't really consider myself a "sports" person. I'm certainly not someone who could win a sports trivia contest. But for some reason, I take the Buccaneers very seriously. Way too seriously. I've considered quitting it, but there's a great addiction in watching them win. If only I could separate myself enough so as to be a functional person when they lose, but still get excited when they win. Maybe I should just get to be more like Tony Dungy and remain stone-faced instead.
