Yeah, however it may be, certain sports seem to provide a dumping ground for whatever kind of territorial emotions. I was always rather more depressed after a tough lost than angry. I never was compelled to go riot, but rather mope around for a day or so. The last thing I wanted to do was trash the place.
Anyway, I'm glad this isn't normal. Most folks do win and lose healthily.
