Funny thing; I find losing with a good team harder to stomach than losing with a bad team. With a bad team, losing is all you expect. With a good team, losing is wrong.
Something like four years ago we had that season where no pitcher could retire anybody and our team ERA was well over five. I laughed more during that season (of despair, but it counts!) than during any other season I remember.
