Prompt 2

I can only talk about intensity as a player, since I haven’t been a coach or GM and being a spectator isn’t the same as being a part of the team. Don’t get me wrong, being a spectator can be intense, I know I’ve been on the edge of my seat multiple times at an arena and even on my couch! But back to the question at hand, out of the three, I’d have to say being down by one is tensist (is that a word?). Being up by one is a great feeling, they have to score 2 to beat you so you’re in decent shape. A straight up tie isn’t so bad either, since you can break that tie with a goal of your own. Being down by one is the worst since tying it up just puts you a position to score another, which compounds the intensity.
