From Peter King's column.:
2. I think one NFL coach spoke for many when he told me last night: "New England's by far the tougher team than Indianapolis, mentally and physically. It showed in their game. The Patriots have about five guys who will take you by the throat, throttle you and absolutely not accept losing. I don't think the Colts have one. They better find a few of those, or they'll always lose those kind of games."
I heard the same discussion about the Red Sox before winning the World Series. For some teams, it's NEVER ok to lose. Those teams tend to be more successful than teams that have a mentatility that it's sometimes ok to lose.
For the record, I personally believe that it's never acceptable to lose important battles.
