Some of the deepest thoughts I've ever had, biggest emotions, have been in a post-game team circle, especially after a loss.
Sitting on the grass, exhausted, slowly taking off the cleats, trying not to look your teammates in the eye, or you might just start crying.
Someone has to say something in these moments.
I once had a coach tell me, after a brutal season-ending loss, don't replay this game over and over in your head.
You can't fix the past.
You can try and learn from it, but you can't fix the past.
Yeah, I know.
Wise words.
Great coach.
And really hard to do.
I've always been one of those people who hates to lose more than I love to win.
I think a lot of top athletes are that way.
That might be why I'm so fascinated by losing.
Because it's an inevitable part of loving sports.
But it never gets easier.
At least not for me.
And I'm particularly fascinated by losing streaks.
I've been lucky enough to never have been on a truly hard luck team.
But sometimes I look at a college or pro team with an awful record and I wonder, how do they deal with it?
Loss after loss.
