What in the sports world would upset you so much that you would go to the extent of taking out your frustration on a water cooler the way the Rays' Carlos Gomez did Wednesday in Miami?

Say, for instance, Gomez's .198 batting average and 74 strikeouts this season with the Rays.

Or maybe the loss to Trinidad & Tobago that prevented the U.S. team from qualifying for the World Cup.

Or the repeated frustration year after year of the Lightning coming so close  to winning the Stanley Cup before falling just short.

What would push you to such an extreme?
