So What’s Going On? You Watching Monday Night Football Tonight?

OMG I’ve never seen so many nervous people completely invested in the polls and this debate.  Personally, as a sports fan this is not new to me.  I am totally squirmy about tonight, but it’s no different than what I feel every Sunday when the Jets play or when the Mets are in a must win situation.

I feel sorry for non-sports fans who are having all these unfamiliar feelings.  Hint, drinking helps!  Line up the shots and we’ll get through this.
