I will never ever cheer for a loss, I was pissed when he fumbled. That was just the hindsight fan in me.
See, these points I agree with. The play was good by Chavous, however, it wasn't perfect. Having a guy wrapped up and then punching at the football is not usually the best way to force a fumble. If someone else came over and stripped him, I would be taking it a lot easier on him. However, the situation being what it was, that was just poor techincal football from Betts. I'm sure it was a mental lapse, but he puts it on the ground kind of a lot. He needs to get better at it.

As for not cheering for a loss, I'm glad to hear. If the fans adopt an attitude where it's okay for the Skins to lose, then what the hell do we have to cheer for? And why would we even bother watching for that matter?
