Message: [QUOTE="lynx000, post: 3065157, member: 2065"] The it's just a game got under my skin originally as well, but I have come around to the Boyd/Wolfie view about that. They are absolutely correct, in the ultimate wash up, it is just a game. All the serious shit that people go through (pedestrians hit today in George Street after a driver suffered a medical condition), people suffering from mental health issues feeling bereft of hope and support such that they suicide, family members dying in front of your eyes from cancer, or just giving up, those things put form in a football game and the outcome of a football game into perspective. In Boyd's case I am almost sure it is both a defensive mechanism and a coping mechanism in light of his mental health issues. [/QUOTE]
