Therefore, there is no language barrier and I understand what you are writing perfectly. Also, I hope that you have read things that I wrote and can notice my understanding and command of the language.
Now, could you, please, point out all the positives in this particular sentence out of what you wrote: I dare you to find something positive in this sentence.
Yes, you do say that you're hoping for the best and so on, and so forth... But that just that, a hope. Yes, you did describe the game and what the players did. But that doesn't change the tone of the message I am reading.
Anyway, please don't play the "language barrier" card with me. |
I was hoping it was the language. You know, give you the benefit of the doubt and all. If you expect me to put no negative sentences in all my posts, forget it. There are also many positive things in that post. So you can choose to talk to me about the positives, which I would much prefer, or you can, as you did, characterized my post as negative, ignoring all the positives. That I don't like.
PS, by the way, with your fancy degree & all, yes, you should be able to pick a positive message out of even the sentence you cited. How can you "lose" a season, unless you have a season to lose. The statement implies (if you take it context of the rest of the post), that we can indeed win a championship this season - a very positive thought - , but that we are losing it by having other priorities.
