When they go against you, they are devastating and seem weightier than when they go for you. I've noticed the breaks have a way of evening out over time. A trip, a missed field goal; these things have to do with presence of mind and skill - but when they occur at the worst possible times, they are bad breaks. There have been many times everything seemed to  magically go or way too. Maybe we'll get one when it's most valuable. One thing has been established and it's really big and in our favor: we have a good football team.
The above is likely to be highly biased and may not be defensible.

You make some Breaks and we blew the ones we had opportunity to make.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.
