I'll get a bowl of ice-cream, take it too the lounge, drop my trousers and sit on the bowl of ice-cream, resting my bros on-top. It's painful so I forget about the game - and slightly arousing. Definitely recommend.

i watch another sport like NBA or soccer. thank god for the UCL final last weekend
That was me last year. OKC Thunder all the way baby!

Was at the game surrounded by passionate but good humoured Magpie supporters. Got a few pats on the back for our boys efforts and for how loud us Eagle fans were at the G, so shrugged it off and went to have a few drinks with random Collingwood supporters. If it was against the Dons, would of copped abuse on the way out of the stadium and gone straight home in a foul mood

Go to young and jacksons and look for Cwood scum to belt....and there was a few there too. 10 pints didn't make me feel any better

Going for a run usually does it for me.

Most of the time i'm only pissed off during the game and 30 minutes after the game, i don't go into that many games expecting to win these days.

Yeah I reckon that helps these days, even the pies game, I basically felt we would lose no matter what, even when we were up, it made it a little easier to accept, and the fact we played pretty well made it easier too.

Normally I keep myself distanced emotionally from it. But I could use a win this weekend cause everything else is going shit for me haha.

Not sure if I could handle a loss to Norf either way.

Today was actually much easier to take than any of our other losses this year except maybe Geelong which I had forfeited before we even started. I'm already over it :p

carlton was anger, Collingwood I saw live and it was evident we lacked the class. Today is just calm reflection on how poor the club is - at many levels. Simmo I have time for.

Over the last few years I've learnt to expect less. I'd get cranky regularly after losses but it would wash over. Nowadays I expect less so go into games with more blind hope than thinking yes we can actually win.

Last night was a mighty tough pill to swallow but, especially after what looked like improvement in the Pies game. How the form can fluctuate like that baffles me
