I of course, being a true Boston fan since 1967, gave up on my team several times during the contest. Spent many minutes outside cooling off, pathetically sulking, inconsolable...My father and 11 year old daughter, never gave up. Rae told me constantly the Pats were going to come back. She was immovable. Even at 28-9...I learned a lot about being a real fan last night from her, and plan on making some halftime adjustments of my own.
Btw, I called one of my brothers up as he had gone to bed in 3rd quarter. He was beside himself that he missed that comeback.
I called my aunt and uncle, my uncle was in tears of joy. He was the one who told me to turn that TV back on...My mom there too, all smiles.
Humble is good.
