As far as making any excuse after a loss, I think everyone gets annoyed by that. I know I get annoyed when I hear any athlete from any sport make an excuse after losing. I do see the mentality behind it tho....


Firstly, if they athlete is famous/successful enough for people to even hear about an excuse they made then that whatever sport that athlete plays is how he/she makes their money. When an athlete loses it hurts their stock. Stock=money. Since the athletes livelihood revolves around this of course some will try to regain some stock after a loss.


With that being said, no one wants to here an excuse. An athlete will gain much more respect by showing class and keeping it behind closed doors imo.
