Nice job of taking all of the logic out of a reasonable discussion.. The bottom line is we all want to win games but would enjoy not sweating out a victory of a game that we've dominated for 2.5 quarters but then decided to ease off the pedal and coast the rest of the way hoping to bleed the lead. Winning ugly is fine, but winning decisively is better..
