As a fan, what is tougher....?

As a fan, in the end I'd rather get my ass kicked; otherwise I beat myself down for years with plays like the fail mary

When I coach, in the end I'd way rather get my ass kicked than lose by a point. I still remember bad coaching calls I made over twenty years ago

When you lose a close one you agonize over what were the one or two plays that caused you to lose. It can keep you up at night if you are a player or coach. When you get blown out it is embarrassing but you don't beat yourself up over it. You just reload and retool towards the next game/season. Folks often remember heartbreaking loses more than blowouts.

You do have a point though. I can't get myself to watch those games because I always think of what if. The 6 pick game in STL you know you had no chance so even when you watch it you don't care. With that said, isn't what could have been better than we had no chance? I think so.

Thanx for rekindling that memory. I just got a paper cut, got any lime juice?

I'd go with the blowout losses are worse. As a fan you get the feeling that your team didn't even deserve to be there.

I get over these faster. I tend to just say "meh...they played for shit." For some reason this is more comforting than playing a good game and losing.
