Round 1 tomorrow...
1 day to go until our boys take the field once more. This time last year we delivered what was one of the most satisfying beltings we were to deliver throughout the season and gave us a percentage boost that saw us in first position and held us in the top 8 for quite some time. Things were finally looking up for us

I was hoping it might have lifted by now but I still feel blah.

Under my moderator hat I will try to be not all blah and instead be all positive for the sake of not having depressing entries. But under the me hat I don't want to even see a game of footy this year. I'm gutted about Stevens, can't stand to hear the media shit about Fev being in Brisbane, and still feel pessimistic about our future.
Tomorrow, I'm going to the circus. It's the first time I won't be at our opening game for as long as I can remember.
I have no will to go to or see any match this year. I really hate that. AFL used to be my life.
Even less do I want to accompany Cameron to his games. The thought of having to watch that arsehole, heroin junkie Buddy Franklin run around the field then have to pretend to barrack for the team he plays for for the sake of supporting Cam makes me want to hit something really, really hard.

I just can't get past the Fevola decision.
I feel very much like he should be playing for us but severely suspended and being PUNISHED for what he did and pulled from all TV duties.
Instead he is have a great time and a new start with another club and it is us who are left to pick up the pieces.
I'm not convinced Judd wasn't a major factor in shifing him.
I'm not convinced the Fevola was supported on the night it happened and that they paved the way for his downfall.
Some will say it's water under the bridge now and it is.
But leaves me feeling the club made very bad decisions at our own expense and no one elses and that leaves me with little faith in them.
Which is why I feel blah.

Except I'll add on one more thing makes me so angry, that is half fuelled from the hatred I have for Hawthorn (mostly Buddy Franklin) after having to endure several arse kickings (and then there was that game last year) of us by them while being the sole Carlton supporter sitting amongst his entire incredibly animated Hawthorn supporter family...
... okay, so we've established my biases.
BUT, it annoys me to no end that the AFL covered up Buddy Franklin's drug test results because he was the Coleman Medallist and the 100+ goal kicker and a reflection on their brand... oh, and lets not forget he's also GOD as well.
Yet Brendan Fevola farts in public and is bashed by the media for it and any wrong turn.
I get Fev screwed up, but how much of that was induced by incessant pressure by the media and all-round biases when it comes to players?
And even now I can't let it go and it still makes me as angry as it did the first time.
