[QUOTE="spartansstink, post: 130621655, member: 1488840"] Is this really about their teammates or about you? Do you think the team is going to throw fits, trash the hotel or the stadium, hunt Will Grier down and beat him up or make death threats to his wife or anything else if they lose this game? Of course not. All will be forgotten by January 1 when they start preparing for September 1. I've been on some teams. We won some and lost some. Apparently, the reason we lost was because we didn't practice in cow pastures at night under the headlights. Oh well... ce la vie. Your character is better shown in what you do from January to December. It's those "trenches" that count more - not what you do or don't do on December 28th in the Camping World Bowl from Orlando Florida. I suppose some teams may see this as a negative character trait. I doubt it though. They are professionals. I feel they would see it as collegians doing their level best to become even better professionals, i.e. being professional. [/QUOTE]
