We lost. What a drag. The worst team beat us. We didn't practice. How embarrassing. I am going to cry.

We lost. The worst team in the league defeated us and we walked off the field with our heads hanging low. What a blow!

Fred shouted, "Hey, bro, you didn't practice and lost to a bunch of losers" Martha sighed, "I didn't think it was necessary because we were playing an inferior team.
