Quick. Someone call up the poster who creates that every week. I need to piss him off with my literal answer.

Fear/Paranoia Level: 5 (Baseline: 5; +1 for Still Wary Of Road Games Against Decent Teams, –1 for Keystone Kops Special Teams Vs Jaybaugh, +1 for Their Quarterback Is Not Miserably Incompetent, +1 for Very College Offense Against Very NFL Coordinator, –1 for Ends Gonna Eat, –1 for You Lost To Illinois?!??!)

Desperate need to win level: 9 (Baseline: 5; +1 for That One Time Scott Frost's Mom Said Something?, +1 for That One Time Scott Frost Said That His Team Won Because They Hit Harder, +1 for Honestly Scott Frost's Face Just Bothers Me, This Is A Me Problem That I'm Working On, +1 for Big Goals, +1 for Feels Good Man, –1 for Lucy Football Approaching No Just Don't)

Loss will cause me to… dude there's a hockey game tonight, football can't hurt me no mo'.

Win will cause me to… eagerly anticipate Frost claiming that Nebraska had superior windbreakers.

MaizeBlueA2 and reference to a literal response to piss someone off made me realize for the very first time that “A2” with an added “d,” as in “A2d,” could be pronounced “etude,” as in the musical term, and would rhyme with “attitude.”

Sorry, what were we talking about . . . ?

A win will cause me to be happy. A loss would leave me sad. It's important that I share this with the world. If I didn't, the world would be sad.

Not to nitpick, but if you want to piss him off with your answer, shouldn't you call him? I mean, sure, one of us may know his number, and if you submit your answer, we may very well get around to it in casual conversation. However, the best communication has always been direct communication - except at 3 AM, then you might need to pepper it with the odd platitude just so you aren't met with a torrent of profanity, assuming they even answer the phone.
