The planet apparently is slipping off its orbit; CBS put a shot of singer Jennifer Hudson into their post-final-college-hoop-game montage set to the song “One Shining Moment”:

It was at that point, my head sunk into my hands.

My list of analogies for what this felt like for me:

1) As if someone told me Target Field was a mirage and the Twins will be back in the Metrodome for the next 5 years.

2) As if a huge birthday party was planned for me and no one showed up.

3) As if I my team just lost in the NFC Championship game because there were too many men in the huddle.

I’ve got a better one: someone changed a montage.

I think I’ve finally found something more depressing than people who get suicidal over their team choking in the finals.

With all due respect to writer Seth Kaplan – sack up, little camper.  Your heart will go on.
