I very strongly considered not even writing a Coping With Loss article this week. When I first started this series, I had to write maybe three or four of them a season, so it was never all that hard to put a spin on a few losses here and there; this year, though, I’ve really, really had to dig deep.
More importantly, though, the title of the series — Coping With Loss — was always meant to be a play on how seriously we take Patriots losses and how negatively they impact our lives.
