I wasn't good enough to make majors. I couldn't hit offspeed like the pros.
Im still better than you who probably only played T ball but not even in the same stratosphere as the pro's.
But it was still competetive and everyone on the team wanted to win.
In all my years of sports at whatever level we won a few championships and titles and lost a few. Losing the Championship means sweet F all. Do you think me and my friends on the team sit around and talk about that one time we made the Championship game and lost? No, we failed. It means absolutely nothing.
Oh, my!! You're such a stud, we're all so impressed. Excuse me for asking though, to get to the Championship games you lost, you had to get to the playoffs first, right? In the NFL this year 12-5 got the 49ers to the playoffs, so that's something they accomplished that several other teams in the league didn't. And the last time I checked they are in a playoff game this weekend, and if they win that they'll move on, so why don't you save all your losing the Championship doesn't mean "F all" talk for when they're actually eliminated, and spend a little time rooting for their success rather than crapping on every draft pick they've made for the last decade. I'll agree their drafts have left something to be desired, but they've done well enough to be in the mix for most of Lynch and Shanahan's tenure, which is something a lot of other teams in the league can't say. Go Niners!
