Coping Options...

[Jimdish255]

How are people on the yard dealing when it seems like everything that can possibly go wrong keeps happening to this football team.

I went with comfort food to take my mind off of it and buy some time to think. Beef short ribs and pizza dough for tomorrow. Hoping it helps.

Today - wallowing in self-pity and frustration

Monday - eternal optimism

Pizza (without cheese) and dark beer.

 

[ZooCougar]

2.5 hours of rage yard work.

 

[Hoophound]

We’ve got to will ourselves to the finish line. There is no giving up. It’s not just for football. Football must save basketball.

Pizza without cheese? So self-harm?

Pizza without cheese? So self-harm?

More like self healing...nothing is more disgusting (to me at least) than a pizza overloaded with bad cheese as it overwhelms the sweetness of the sauce.

I love me a heavily seasoned sauce with no mozz, sprinkled with pecorino Romano cheese and a ton of red pepper flakes

I was going to take the day off from the gym but took it out on the weights.

What's the point of a pizza if you don't have cheese?!

Less is more with cheese imo. If I'm getting regular pizza I get margherita for that reason

UConn is the best soap opera ever. Still hoping for a happy ending.

My alcohol fuels my eternal optimism...

I'll caveat this response by recognizing it belongs in the pizza thread, but American pizza has way too much cheese (what the hell is with cheese in the crust anyway?!?!). What I had growing up, some of you wouldn't even recognize as pizza as there was no cheese at all, but this is what is authentic in southern Italian culture.
Back to the topic, a nice tomato pie made me almost forget the game, then I stupidly scrolled my Comcast app for games and saw the scoreline again...followed up with a shot of 12 year old whiskey .

no comment.

 

[Skiblets]

Pretty much the definition of insanity. Do the same thing over and over again and expect a different outcome

Used to say the last 10 years was a wasteland. Now it’s 15. How can this program suck this much?

 

[maple]

All of the above, depending on the week.

When will the endless weekend beatings end?? Can’t we just join conference USA for god sake so we can compete?? This is getting ridiculous already

For the time being, I just drink the performance away. I hope that they learn from this pathetic performance. I see lesser programs compete every day, every week, every year. I believe that can be us, no reason it can't be

So I'm still hanging on, albeit being very disappointed today. People can and do learn from their mistakes, I'll give them at least one more week.

Losses are inevitable, nothing matters, God is dead.

 

[Sky ball]

Reading texts from my VA softball buddies about how good UConn's targeting coach is!

 

[UCan3]

I always think, what is happening in the offseason that would produce results like this. This drives me crazy more than thinking about what happened yesterday.

I didn’t expect a win.

I just wanted us to show we belong.

It ruined my weekend and no other way around it.

 

[UCFBfan]

Honestly, I'm so used to losing I don't even care. For a few years it used to ruin my day, then it changed for a few years where it made me angry for a little bit, then for a few years I'd need to have a few drinks. Now, I just expect it and hope I'm surprised with a win.

Ummmm, we must have a different understanding of what constitutes a happy ending.
