We play to win. When you're 4 years old, hitting off a tee, you want to win so that maybe after the game you can have a pizza party. Then, you grow a little older, and you want to win so that the coaches will have a big sleepover with all the players. It's still the same thing. We're kids still.
Trouble is, it gets harder and harder to believe.
That's what's so infuriating about the game. Sweeney wants to play in Kansas City his whole life. He really wants that. He likes it here. He likes the people.
