Requiem for a Team

January 18th, 2009 by The Raging Clam | Filed under Tennessee Titans.
The Titans are dead.


Just wrap your heads around the reality of this. Who were once the giants of the mythological universe of professional football, have been doomed the fate of their namesake…defeat.

You can call it what you want, you can sugarcoat it, (weren’t all those yards lost on penalties great? Or weren’t all those silly turnovers just hilarious? Wasn’t it great the job we did against the #1defense!?) Or you can say that God was on the side of the Ravens (kicker Matt Stover pointed to the sky after the winning field goal indicating God had a hand in the win of a team with an alleged murderer. This of course is not mentioning that God took time out of his busy millennium to get the Ravens a win while figuring out Dafur and Israel). But all that is left, God or no, is a team dead for another year.

“Why so down?” you may ask. Well, an obituary is supposed to list accomplishments, love of stamp collections, and the loving family you left behind. Although we’ll all love our Titans for years to come, none of these things mean anything in football unless you live to fight another day.
