For a bit of a look behind the curtain, normally I’d like to start writing the game recap at some point during the game. I didn’t start until darkness fell because I figured that I had better things to do than brood over this loss and let it eat at me. Instead, I could spend the rest of the afternoon with my family, let my wife try her hand at cutting my hair, and take a walk around the neighborhood, thinking of things aside from Auburn football.
What does that mean? First of all, losses don’t affect me the way they did years ago.
