I went the entire night at work avoiding the score and asking the folks around me to not tell me the score, and everyone either cooperated or was disinterested.  Then around 9:30 some twit in the company broadcast a mass e-mail with the score.  ***ARRRGGGHHHH*****  I asked him to provide spoiler space in further e-mails if he felt the need to share again.  11:00 rolls around, I get in my truck and start it.  The radio was on of course and the local station was just then reading a score update.  **SHAZBOT!!** Then I went to pick up something to eat before heading home to watch the game, but the girl at the counter of McDonalds felt the need to let me know that, "Wow!  What a game!  The score just went to 24 to.."  "STOP!!!  Say no more!  I'm recording it!"  I finally get home, start the game and watch.  And what a game it is!  Too bad it went into double overtime and TIVO only got a little bit of the first OT.  I had to go to ESPN.com to get the story on the rest of the game.  It just wasn't the same.A tale of woe, to be sure, but dear God...what did I do to offend thee??LET THE RIOTING BEGIN!</blockquote>
