Those of you who have read my reviews for a long time will know I’m not a big fan of games like this.
The first reason is that it shows our team wasn’t up to the task of competing. I’ll take a loss by 10 or less any day…at least in those you know the team was close. But losing 42 - 17 just says you didn’t even show up on the field of play from an effort standpoint or your roster is not good enough to compete.
The second reason I don’t like games like this is that they don’t produce a lot of substance for critiquing growth in the team from a positive point of view.
