There were some moments during and shortly after Sunday’s game where I felt transported to another time.
Years back, the way the Packers lost the game against the Colts likely would have stuck with me for the entire week. I’d have spent the rest of the evening stewing, and probably would have avoided any kind of football-related media for at least several days following the defeat. I felt some of those emotions stirring in me, but they quickly subsided.
This year, I have to say, the losses, even the heartbreaking ones, just don’t affect me like they used to.
