Is anyone here waking up in the middle of the night

after tough losses? I tend to just wake up from my sleep and just think about the last game they've just lost. I was up like 2 hours last night just thinking about the MP botched FTs, or Baron's, or JRich's, or St. Jax'. I know I am a fan, but am I now an extreme fanatic? I mean, when the Giants lost game 6 vs. the Angels, I kept waking up for the next 4 months. When I awake suddenly, I just think about some of the things they did wrong or stuff like if the ball bounced a different way. I wanna know if there are others here that are experiencing the same thing. I wonder if it's time to take up knitting instead...or see my psychoanalyst?

Im pretty sure theres other cats on this site that are on some sort of Med. not just because of stressing games...but im pretty sure it adds to the already stressed life of sports fans in general.

Oracle will help you get some zzzzz's
I had to pound a bud light just to get a little woozy to crash out. I'm really trying to forget about the clock reading 52.3 seconds and Matty Barnes making his pump fake jump shot to put us up by 5 all for nothing or at least for the country to see what its been like for 13 plus years of us giving up 4th quarter leads.  I just hope I can go to sleep tonight!

Aint the Only One
After the game I got back to my SLC hotel and drank myself into a religious stupor. I got paranoid about The Man and suddenly it hit me: what am I DOING out in Utah? Don't I KNOW any better? I tried to put a bottle of Jim Bean against the door of the room, thinking it would "block" Them from breaking in.

The bottle shattered and the liquor spilt everywhere.

The loss hurt like breaking up at prom and everytime I tried sleeping, I imagined waking up in some godforsaken commune out in the Utah desert. I felt the edges closing in on me and wondered how many cult leaders I'd meet in captivity. I thought, do you know what they would DO to people like us?

When I finally slept, I dreamt of game 7 in Utah, Warriors ahead in the 4th quarter. The crowd is in a racist frenzy. Bryon Russell, Howard Eisley and Greg Ostertag are the refs. Pietrus goes up for the game winning layup and gets MAULED by Boozer. No call, game over. Pietrus with the stupid look on his face. Season over.

I passed out on the bed and woke up in the bathroom.

I MUST leave SLC tonight. Forget that. I'm leaving now. This place isn't good for me, fellas...

Didn't wake up...
but i had a nightmare about the game. I dreamt that I was the one taking the last shot to win w/ 2 sec left instead of baron. I shot an airball.

And I was wide open.

Likewise...
...I ended up taking a flu medication that put me to sleep, but I's of had a hell of a time otherwise.
