Sports Therapy?

24-7: UCLA football losses to USC
63-61: UCLA basketball losses to Texas
27-24: Baltimore Ravens football losses to New England Patriots

Needless to say that it has been a bad sports weekend with back to back losses at my alma mater and my 2nd favorite NFL team losing (my high school qb is the Raven's qb).

But maybe my yelling at the tv and the rollercoaster of emotions is just a good way of releasing the stress and frustration from finals (mostly taxing Tax). I have always liked watching sports but I never realized how cathartic it could be until now. Better to be mad at the tv than snapping at friends, roommates, and significant others, as tends to happen with many people around this time of year.

Or if anything, it's a good mindless distraction for the short periods I allow myself to watch part or all of the game.
