I am not capable of watching the Seahawks and rooting for a loss. Even in preseason when wins don't matter or necessarily mean anything, there's an emotional force that makes me want them to win.
Same thing today, my feelings want a win, and my feelings want the Packers to lose so the Seahawks can go to the playoffs.
Now to the brain:
Winning this game today, particularly if the Packers lose and the Seahawks go to the playoffs, could be a longterm setback for the franchise. It could mean many more years of the worst sort of mediocrity: Mediocrity where it seems like we're always just around the bend from becoming a great team, but never quite get there.
But in reality, greatness won't come without major changes.
Being a "playoff team" is not going to motivate any big changes.
Solution: To quiet the brain, and settle the heart, I shall drink.
