The point is, there is a BIG difference between what you want and what you actually accomplish (or don't accomplish.)
When your team gets blown-out 17 - 41, 10 - 34, or 7 - 56, all the little nicknames and cute expressions/slogans become meaningless. The rest of the talking is the excuses, the rationalizing, and the woulda-coulda-shouldas.
At the end of the day, the results speak for themselves.
