Richie Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 12, 2018 -> 08:32 PM) It's really just the game threads, everything else is fine haha I can tell. haha I'm the same way with the Bears. A total headcase during the games - then I can take a deep breath to come down from the high or (usually as of recent years) the low. With baseball's 162 game season, especially this early. I tend to do a much better job of taking individual games/performances with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to do a much better job of taking individual games/performances with a grain of salt. Baseball is my favorite sport by far. It is your friend during the season. No matter how pissed off and irrational I get each evening, I go to bed, sleep on it and become more levelheaded by morning. There is another game tomorrow night. I tend to get goofy and make knee jerk reactions during the game. But as I think about it cooler heads prevail. I'm not shy about being autistic so most times for me I'm either looking at things through rose colored glasses or as if the sun set and will never come up again, lol.
