re: Does being a football fan bring you joy?

May sound strange, but I've had more fun the past two years even though LSU was not in the NC hunt. During the years when they have a legit shot each week is more of a worry about losing than enjoying the game. Take the 2011 year for example, even when they'd win I'd find myself worrying about the next game because of something I saw as a flaw and that the next team might exploit. No doubt, I want another NC, but I've definitely been way more relaxed and actually enjoyed the season this year.
