Desperation? The roll of the dice?
You realize that you don't always get the outcome you want because you really really try and want it so so much, right?
First, I didn't accuse them of quitting. I accused them of being bad and laid out the evidence.
I questioned, mostly hypothetically, how would it look different if the team had actually quit instead of being bad. My point was it would look almost identical. Being bad and quitting look very much alike so it's sometimes difficult to tell one from the other.
Based on how they played, it's not unreasonable to say they quit. It might not be true but based on the evidence, you can't say out of hand that it's not true.
