Come on guys just enjoy it! Who cares if we never win anything! You'll get over it! Just relax!

The excuses and rationalizations continue to mount. Only losers are ok with continuing to lose. It really is that simple.

I don't think anyone here enjoys when they lose. We want them to win, and as loyal fans, we root for wins. But , as I and a few others have hinted at, we just don't think losing basketball games are really anything to get mad about. It's not that important in the grand scheme of things. People that become enraged at Cal when they lose,  throw things at the TV, threaten to harm his dog or take a hammer to Ellen, have issues.  I'm as big a UK fan as any on this board but I also realize that there's very few things in life less important than a UK basketball game. I can understand being disappointed after the loss of a big game or an early exit from the tournament. The vitriol that we see from fans after losses, though, does not register with me. If a UK loss put a big dent in my pocketbook, I might be angry. If a loss to Tennessee magically turned my semen into sawdust, I might be angry.  Since wins or losses don't affect my life in any tangible way, I don't get angry. Disappointed, at times, yes. Angry, NO!
