avoiding CB after a loss is completely different than the OP's claim that he hasn't "thought about the game all week"

Not really, BYU will win today; I am confident

No. Fair weather fan is one who would stop watching the games. Not being

10/16/21 9:34am

Hurting is part of it. 1 undefeated season ever. When you care losses hurt. But just completely disengaging?

This is what independence did to us. Totally understandable
