I'm not sure what's more appropriate:
Tennyson's "it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all"
Dickens' "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." or from the same tome "tis a far far better thing that i do than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to than I have ever known" or
Tom Petty's "No, I won't back down. You can stand me up at the gates of hell. But, I won't back down. No, I'll stand my ground."
I guess they all fit. This feeling really sucks. Go Bulls!!!
Next time, I have a suggestion. Let's do this in reverse. Whoever wants in gives up all their TPs if the Cs win. That's really giving it up for the cause.
