I've come to this conclusion also...it's borderline masochistic and has made me wonder why people partake in something where it really doesn't balance out.
Watching the guy in the Bears video was kind of frightening...just the full-on rage over losing a football game. Paying that much money for something that potentially evokes that level of unhappiness? Would he have been equally as happy if they had won...screaming for joy all the way to his car?
Winning a game makes you happy but not to that extreme. When KC finally won a WC by beating Houston it was cool...but nowhere near the opposite of losing a close playoff game.
I do think if KC wins the AFCCG....it will be a pretty damn exciting time but not nearly as depressing as will be losing it.
