I have created this blog post to just spill out my fucked up state of mind at the moment because I have all kinds of emotions going through me at the same time, but the biggest is fear.

Right now, the first half of the game has finished. The game that will determine the champion of the 2011 Football Season in Turkey. The team I'm a supporter of, the league leader Fenerbahce, have the same points with the 2nd team in the league table, Trabzonspor. Both teams have at the moment 82 points. They have been point-to-point, exactly the same in the entire second half. Fenerbahce has closed a 9 point gap to claim the leadership, while Trabzonspor lost a lot of points on the way but still have maintained an impressive record.

Fenerbahce has won 15 games out of 16 in the second half of the season. We are on an impressive streak, no defeat in the second half, just a draw. It is only 45min left until the end of both matches, which will determine the champion. If both teams win, we are the champions. If we ever lose a single point with Trabzonspor winning, they are the champions. It is getting intense.

So, why fear? Simply because of the chance of losing the title at the final match? Well, it is not the only issue. The issue is that Fenerbahce has lost the championship TWICE on the final week of the season in the last 5 years. We might simply be the unluckiest and one of the most emotionally devastated supporters in the whole world. Trust me gentlemen, living it twice was a terrible experience. A third, I'm not sure how I'll take it.

I'm having an hard time at just standing still. My heart beats rapidly. The second half is about to start. Right now, we are winning by 2-1. We have failed to score several times in the first half and conceded a shitty goal to top it all of. So, adrenaline is kicking in. It is about to start. I will continue this in 45minutes. Any prayers, wishes of luck is appreciated. And haters, they are just gonna keep hating. I don't really care. Nothing can hurt me more than the loss of two championships on final match.

To be continued in 45 minutes......

One thing peculiar about sports fans is how they use the pronouns "we" and "they". When their team wins, it's always "we won 5-3". But when they lose, it's often "they (team X) lost". People's perception of self-worth is actually impacted by the results of "their" team, and they will unconsciously use the correct pronoun to detatch/attach themselves to the outcome. Some will go as far as to believe they impacted the result (if I was watching they wouldn't have scored that goal! / I didn't wear my lucky jersey oh noes!)

You can clearly see OP's attachment to the team by getting emotionally involved and the constant use of "we". Seems like he's a diehard enough fan to say "we lost" if it happened though.

Pretty interesting tidbet I picked up from reading the book "Influence", by Robert Cialdini.

IT'S OVER!!! WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS (QUEEN STYLE BABY!) Oh my god man it was hell of a match the match finished 4-3 and we conceded a goal at the last minute making the score 4-3! If we ever conceded a goal, it would be all over, but the match finished and I'm just overjoyed right now! Thanks for anyone for reading it and just giving thoughts, I love you all and everyone!!!!!!

Time to celebrate now.....
