to fire up at that point?

"Hey fellas, let me fire you up while you are getting steamrolled by the zamboni truck a/k/a Boise State"

Teammates: Dude, we are getting steamrolled, stop acting like you are helping us here by bringing attention to yourself while we are getting blown out. Your other punts were 35, 38 and 49. You have one kick over 50 that rolls to over 70 and now we are supposed to be able to get fired up while we are on our backs?

In high school, I hit a 40-foot shot at the Huntsman Center in a state basketball game at the final buzzer. We lost the game by 6 to a team we could have easily beat. I was a sub. Should I have started chest-bumping, high-fiving, break-dancing every teammate of mine while we walked off the court? They would have smacked me down as being an idiot.
