How Do You Respond When Your Team Loses? by helinues(op): 1:16pm On May 14, 2017
Frustration, anger, disappointment, embarrassment; these are all feelings that stir up in any good sports fan as he watches his team lose a big game.

It’s not easy to accept defeat, nor to endure the embarrassment and shame that come along with it. Everyone hates to see their team lose, but the world has a particular view on sports that eats into the very heart of a person.

Men become obsessed with sports, and consequently with their teams. There is a degree of “loyalty” to which some fans go that is far beyond any right enjoyment in sports and any right delight in their teams. Why do fans shoot referees, why do men curse and swear and hold grudges when their teams lose? Why do some fans react in full on heartbroken tears and sobbing over loss? I honestly don’t know the answer.

There are only a few category of people allowed to let their emotions and feelings get the better of them in such situations:
(1) The one who placed a bet and lost due to the result
(2)The one who plays for the club or has someone that plays for the club.
(3)The FOOLISH ones


If the win wouldn't have impacted your life in anyway and you're cursing, fighting, going on hunger strike, destroying things because your team lost then you belong to the 3rd category.

It depends on how they lost. Like that night of Overebo's broad 'daylight' robbery, I was dead within me,can't get that night out of my head.

I have passion for only 2 things in life: Music and Football. I can never forget the day I puched a wood that has nails and bled in celebration of Van Persie's equalizer against Chelsea at Old Trafford. Whenever my club/country wins, I celebrate with them, whenever they lose I'm quick to remember it's just a game in other not to let temper or anger deprive me of certain joys(provided I didn't place a bet on the match) wink
