Why do losses overshadow wins at times? The lovable losers! The Buffalo Bills, The Chicago Cubs, at one time and the one, that I recognize the most, is the crucifix. Why do we relate to the pain and suffering over the success and accomplishment? The Buffalo Bills went to the Super bowl four times. The fans in Chicago were the most loyal fans to their Cubs that I have ever observed.

 We stare at the beaten body hanging on a cross to remind us of our faith. Why? What is wrong with us? 

 My son can make straight A's on his report card and I ask him about his lowest scoring A. I can take batting practice and hit nine out of ten balls well, but get upset over the one that I fouled off. Is there something about the car wreck on the racetrack or the failures of humanity that interest us the most? Do we look for the failures in others to feel better about ourselves?
