There's nothing positive about losing the game. There are plenty of positives to 
take from the way the team played in a loss.

Also, thanks for that story. It helps put things in perspective.

But Skylar...what about all of those who think that losing this game will be so 
good for them?? They believe that this loss willl be more beneficial for them 
than a close win.What tripe.? There was nothing positive about losing this 
game.? Nothing.? Zero.? Not today, not tomorrow.

First let me start off by saying that if you blame one player for this game,
you missed what really happened Saturday.? There were at least 5 really bad
mental errors that all could have made Matt O'Hanlon's blunder irrelevant.

Fast forward to today and I heard someone tell this story on the radio
(sorry, not a word for word quote):

"I travelled over 1,000 miles to go to the game against Va Tech.? I had
pumped this game up in my mind so much and I was destroyed when we let that
receiver get behind us that late in the game.? I couldn't stop thinking,
'How could this happen?'.? On my way out, I decided to wait for the players
getting on the bus to see how they would react.? When I saw Matt come out of
the locker room, he walked straight over to his wife and hugged her and
started crying because he felt terrible.? After that I remembered how much
heart and effort these kids pour into the program."

I was very upset as well with the game and to me it was one of the most
disappointing losses I've seen.? It pays to remember that these are 18-22
year old kids who are doing nothing but pouring their heart into the program
and however I feel after a game like this, most of the time they feel worse...
