Really good article!

It's really interesting to see how different people deal with the past. I think people were so hurt that they are afraid to get hurt again......I will admit I was a bit of a Doog before and what happened changed my attitude there.....but the passion and excitement is as high as always.

Part of that is just a growing up process Derek - I can point to a bunch of things in my twenties that I used to love...getting into fights at the 7-11 on Aurora, O-Lines that average 338 lbs, Ben Ossai...now they just lack the same allure to me in my thirties.

In all seriousness, I hope you get your mojo back. It's nice having an actual, trained, professional writer that cares about Husky Football on our side (rip Condotta).

Nice read. . .I've felt the same thing for years. . .really since James left. But I'm slightly depressed. Some say that slightly depressed people see things more realistically.

"Depressive realism is the hypothesis developed by Alloy and Abramson[1] that depressed individuals make more realistic inferences than non-depressed individuals. Although depressed individuals are thought to have a negative cognitive bias that results in recurrent, negative automatic thoughts, maladaptive behaviors, and dysfunctional world beliefs,[2][3][4] depressive realism argues not only that this negativity may reflect a more accurate appraisal of the world but also that non-depressed individuals’ appraisals are positively biased.[5] This theory remains very controversial as it brings into question the mechanism of change that cognitive behavioral therapy for depression purports to target.[6] While the evidence currently supports the validity of depressive realism, its effect may be restricted to a select few situations.[7]"

Agreed. I use to care about every personnel move. Now, I don't. Part of it is with Petersen in charge, I trust he'll do the right thing, hence I worry less. He isn't perfect, and I'm sure I'll yell at him next Fall. However, he's a grown up and I trust him. Whether Ben Ossai starts at LG or RG just doesn't matter anymore. He's going to start where he's supposed to.

He made zero attempt to keep him from leaving to a rival. Hired Petermen only four days later.

Sounds like you need to take a walk on the beach with your husband($75k) and get some perspective. Also, you failed to comment on the crispness of the fall afternoons when you went to games as a 5 year old.
