One so young should not yet have to learn about defeat and disappointment. The Steelers are the first team she ever cheered for and she thought they were going all the way. Nightmares of the interception returned for a TD plague her sleep. Thoughts of what could have been if they had gone for the TD on 4th and goal torment her when she's awake.
I tried to console her, saying that Big Ben's hand will heal and he will learn from these experiences next season. The Bus may retire, but the Steelers running game will always be a threat. For now, though, she remains... inconsolable.
