The disappointment from the amount of times I have let myself down by not doing what I was supposed to, or ignoring my personal goals should completely overshadow what I feel from Husker Football.

I do not think our fandom is unique in any way but getting over a loss is hard every week.
If I had to make an analogy, it would be where you lose track of the amount of drinks you have Friday night. Wake up Saturday so hungover that you can hardly function.

Oh, how the Huskers can pull me back in week after week.
