In 2007 when the Packers lost to the New York Giants in the NFC Championship game, I was legitimately depressed for about a week. Now, the Packers have lost just as heartbreaking of a game and I'm already over it. Maturity rules!

Packers were given a gift to be there in the first place, although I was still rooting for them.

you are finally old enough to realize that football sucks.

I'm to the point where I don't even care about football.  I was born in Green Bay but don't see any reason to emotionally entangle myself with what is essentially a brand that has no members who were from the area.
 



ETA: I am glad that for some reason my company gives us tomorrow off.  There is usually a lot of butthurt after games like this as my workplace harbors a significant number of lions fans.

Born in GB as well, used to take these kind of losses really rough.

What's this maturity you speak of?

I got over football at about 38 years old.  

I still love the game.  I'm just not so passionate about it anymore.
