The succession of dropped points has been dispiriting, but the reaction on the blog I follow from alleged "supporters" of Arsenal has been much worse. It's a stream of profanity-laced invective against a group of young men who were only two months ago hailed as heroes by this same gaggle of football addicts. It's embarrassingly stupid behavior. Most of the posts assert that the Gunners are perennial "bottlers" and Manchester City is now certain to win the league. And it gets worse. I can't follow these people where they're going. The second post in this blog was sage advice to myself, and I'm going to follow it by dialing back my angst and putting some distance between me and Arsenal. I may post after games if I feel like it.
