I’m trying to think of a phrase that makes me want to chew glass more than that one.
Geno said that very phrase during his post game interview. We’ve all heard it before from many different players and teams through the years. It’s nothing new.
But it disgusts me as a diehard fan.
Why did the opponent want it more? What in the world could have caused a situation where YOU were not the team that “wanted it more?”
Lack of preparation? Lack of emotion or intensity? Taking the other team too lightly? There should never be a time in your life as a professional athlete getting paid millions of dollars where you are not psychologically of the mind set of wanting it more than your opponent.
Meh. I could wax philosophical all night about the nuances of what went wrong but when I hear players say that phrase, especially our players, man it just makes me wince like I’ve been slapped.
Talk about an insult to all of us fans.
