Inconsolable

I think I am still in denial. It's hard to accept that I actually watched it happen, powerless to do anything to prevent the embarrassment. Which means I was pretty much in the same boat as the 22 guys on the field. The repercussions of this game will be felt for a long time. ESPN already hated us as it was, but now? Last year's post-game headline was "Richtenstein Invades Sabanation." This year Athens got overrun by a fucking blitzkrieg that no one was prepared for. Will I ever in my life be rewarded by a sports team that doesn't routinely disappoint me at a crucial moment?
