Burnt

"You know you’re going to get burned from time to time. It’s just part of the game. So when it happens you have to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and forget about it because they’re about to snap the ball again." - Michael Connelly in "The Fifth Witness" 

Everyone gets burnt - players, coaches, officials. Anger won't help, whining doesn't help, self-pity never helps. 

Do. Not. Quit. Focus on the "next play." Make the girl next to you better. 

Lagniappe. Life imitates art. Expecting perfection adds pressure not performance. You're going to get burnt...
