[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 998916, member: 3849"] I have been on some teams that lost a lot and I have been on teams that have won championships. For the teams that lost a lot, there were usually two scenarios. The first one was our team was severely lacking in talent, but always fought hard. It sucked losing all the time, but the team hated losing so much that we always played tough and above our ability. It just was never enough to beat the vastly superior teams. While it was frustrating we could point to the talent gap and knew that we had done everything we could to win. The second one was where we lost a bunch of games because some of the players on the team (usually the best players) did not care about losing. They took plays off, and many times, games off. We played down to our competition. It was our team that dictated when we won or lost. It was maddening to lose to lesser teams that outplayed or outhustled us. For someone that hates losing more than I like winning, it drove me crazy playing on those teams. It was much, much worse than the low talent team that never won. I believe CDS is dealing with the second scenario. There are not enough players on this team who hate losing more than they like winning. [/QUOTE]
