I agree that it's important for you to have fun, and to keep some perspective. But in a 4th grade loser-loser game, you also need to recognize that folks are going to be a little touchy. I think it would behoove you to keep the actual chuckling and smiling pretty muted, so that the girls -- and their parents -- don't feel like you're making fun of them. I'm not saying you shouldn't laugh at all, but do have some respect for some pretty big emotions that kids -- and their parents -- don't have a lot of experience dealing with. It's mighty tough on anyone to be 3-times-in-one-day-loser.
