Being a sportsfan with a team in the playoffs shortens life expectancy...especially when any of the teams you are rooting for are from the Bay Area. Don't get me wrong, this past year in sports has been pretty amazeballs for the Bay -- SF Giants are the reigning World Series Champs, the 49ers made it to the Super Bowl, the SJ Sharks are currently in the playoffs, and the Warriors have made it to the 2nd round of the NBA playoffs -- but these teams make it SO taxing to watch them!
Case in point --> Game 1 Warriors 127 - Spurs 129 2OT
The only time the Spurs led during regulation was during the first 30 seconds of the game when the score was 3-2. The Warriors were winning throughout the first 3.75 quarters of the game and gave up a 16pt lead to force OT. It looked like the Warriors were going to snap a 29-game losing streak to the Spurs at home, but that turned out to be wishful thinking. There are lots of little things I can complain about, but I'll spare you and just hope for the best in Game 2. After all, the Dubs lost Game 1 in the Denver series and came out on top there.
