Actually, I just finished looking at the final BCS standings and could use a boost. More to the point, I could use an aspirin. So let me get this straight: Pittsburgh loses to Nebraska and Connecticut, narrowly

PHOENIX - Donte' Stallworth was at a loss about potentially losing the football. His rationality had been overtaken by superstition.

FOXBOROUGH -- When you lose the way the Indianapolis Colts did yesterday at Gillette Stadium, it's acceptable to ask "what if?"

A closer look at the Packersâ 47-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field. When one team so thoroughly manhandles another, there almost always are multiple difference-makers.

Corrupt campaigning practices. Charges of sexual harassment. Racial and gender issues. A presidential election thrown out, the winner disqualified, the loser withdrawn.

San Diego -- It was a loss that would have been considered devastating in April. In September, with four games left? Pick your negative adjective and multiply it by five.

Tim Jarrett understands what I'm saying. What a great Superbowl, and what an opportunity for Boston sports fans to learn the value in losing. What? Value in losing? You bet.  It wasn't that long ago when Boston was one of the best cities in the USA for sports precisely because Boston teams were such spectacular losers. I'll never forget the misery of the Dowbrigade after the Red Sox lost something (or did they win, I forget). They must have lost because he swore he'd never let them break his heart again the way they had for his whole life (he's about my age). Losing teaches you that there's more to life than winning, and that's the best lesson possible and it's the one lesson you keep needing to learn over and over until you lose everything, which like it or not is what we all do in the end. People write poetry about losing, great music is composed about lost causes. Who writes an ode to winning? They're too busy getting drunk or getting laid.  Never have I loved a team more or felt more kinship with my fellow fans than when our team goes down in flames after a season of great ups and downs. No doubt there are no smiles or tears of joy in Boston today. But there is hope. And that, even when you win, is all that's left after a great season.

Harvard was sharp; Northeastern self-destructed. That was a bad combination for the Huskies, who suffered a demoralizing 41-14 defeat at Harvard Stadium yesterday, and a good one for the Crimson, who kept an undefeated season going.

He was the dumbest guy in New England. Terry Fran-coma. Gomer Pyle in the dugout. Chewing that giant wad of stuff, making it look like he had a golf ball in his cheek. Not bunting. Not playing smallball. And taking the blame for every mistake his players made.

DURHAM, N.H. -- After suffering losses each of the last four weeks in a &quot;murderer's row&quot; schedule -- in the words of coach Don Brown -- it appeared Massachusetts was about to lose No. 5 early in yesterday's game.
