every fanbase has a guy who leaves with four minutes left and every fanbase treats him like he abandoned a dying relative. league-wide, i'd like to defend him. he watched the whole game. he watched more football than the man live-tweeting his own outrage from a parking garage forty minutes later, phone at eleven percent, missing the ending anyway because the app buffered. leaving early isn't quitting, it's arithmetic. the last three minutes cost you ninety in traffic and buy you a fumble recovery you'll see nine times tonight regardless. stay if you want the room. go if you want to be home. both are fine. only one of you is currently screaming into a windshield
