Re: Little League World Series
Indeed. "The agony of defeat" is very nearly as big a part of the picture as the "thrill of victory." Maybe you don't want to dwell (and maybe that was the complaint), but I would think that in any competition, it would actually be weird to show only jumps for joy and high-fives and not the long faces on the other side.
I think we all felt for Curacao, as we felt for our own kids. The mix of emotions is what makes the experience that much more amazing.
