I'm at 21 years myself, I'm happy for you, wish the feeling wasn't mutually exclusive.

I almost know what you're talking about; yet at the same time I haven't a clue. Congrats on the win, it must feel very special.

Congrats to the Giants! I hope they all tell Barry Bonds to kiss their asses.
I'm not as upset as I was when the Flames lost in 2004, I chalk this up to having suffered the heartbreak before so it's not as bad the second time around, in addition I went into the series thinking it was San Fran's to lose, and it wasn't a close game 7, one the pitch got away from Lee that went over the fence I knew it was over so I had time to let it sink in.

This really does suck though, somehow not making the playoffs was always easier to deal with (mind you I'll take losing in the World Series over missing the playoffs seven days a week and twice on Sundays)
