You obviously have a hard time disagreeing without being disagreeable. It's a skill you might want to try to cultivate. Dude, you don't even know me. I read those quotes, you provided. I agree with those coaches have to say. However, not one of them said that a loss is more valuable than a victory. That is specifically what I was referring to. I agree that a loss can be a good learning experience and you can learn important life lessons from it, but everybody, including coaches and players would rather win than lose.
