After a loss, these are obviously much less fun to write as it forces me to look back on the game and realize just poorly things went from the first whistle until the last.
I give myself a day or so to reflect on what I saw, how I felt, and to allow my fandom to simmer down before I start spouting off my opinion in order to avoid any potential shot at coming off as a homer or anything similar.
After the last few seconds on the clock ticked away, it was quite a struggle to peer through the muck in order to find a player or two who actually played well despite the outcome.
