" they were the better team TODAY"? How about they were just the better team Period? If you lost , the other team is just better, especially if it isn't close. Admit your defeat, not today , but tomorrow or next week would be the same.

Where are you seeing excuses Ham? Every single Salem poster has congratulated LT and said they were the better team. You are splitting hairs over how that was said.Originally posted by hamspear:
What you talking about a field goal? Lol I have no sour grapes about anything, just don't like it when fans of a team don't admit defeat ,and that they were not as a good of team. There is no better team TODAy, there is the better team period . This game wasn't close just like last year. Stop making excuses.
Great post.Originally posted by rickyw:
None of you seem to be taking into account that some teams for various reasons improve thru the season, while some teams regress due to injuries, events that lessen team chemistry, and other factors. Weather can aid an lesser team ( a superior team with a great passing attack and a really good running game that would have won easily, can have their passing game negated by cold rain and wind, and mud, and then lose to a close game, to a one dimensional team with good running game and no pass defense whatsoever.) Yes, the inferior team that won that day, was the better team that day, but under different circumstances they would have gotten destroyed.
One play could could result in a 14 point swing in a game ( example: an interception returned for a touchdown, could be the result of interference that prevented a touchdown and wasn't called, or ....an interception returned for a touchdown is called back, when there was no interference, and then after the penalty, the offense scores). and I've seen these two examples happen more than once. This is why I generally don't consider games a blowout unless the differential is at least 19 points.
