Agony of Defeat

Phrase originally made famous on the old ABC's Wide World of Sports show that aired on Saturday afternoons. A hapless ski jumper fell off the jump and had the misfortune to have that little video clip replayed about a zillion times over the years.
Antonym is Thrill of Victory
Bringing you the wide world of sports, where you can experience the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat all within the comfy confines of your living room.

He blew that $1,000 Nassau and then got fired for letting down the Chairman's team - talk about the agony of defeat.

day of defeat

Counter Strike is NOT better than this game. But I am not comparing them because they are worlds of difference. Day of Defeat is a WWII deathmatch game that involves capturing flags by standing near them. You can pick from 6 classes of weapons. While each has a secondary weapon (excluding the rifle). There is a Rifle (k98 on axis and M1 Garand on allies), Assault (Thompson on the allies and mp40 on axis), Support (BAR on allies, and mp44 on axis). There is also Sniper (Springfield on allies, and k98 scoped on axis), Machine Gun (MG42 on axis and I'm not sure what the american MG is called). Last but not worst, is the Rocket. Panzerschrek on axis, and Bazooka on allies. The game features real, town maps that were involved in the war, and other maps that are just fun to play, like orange_fight_arena.
Day of Defeat is an amazing game, it's fun and you get to kill stuff.

Day of Defeat

A game that once used to have a dedicated fanbase but was destroyed by the desire for profit.
That game used to be great, but it became a Day of Defeat when the Development Team sold it's heart and soul away.

defeat the debt

Name of an AstroTurf entity created by Berman & Co.. Pretends to be a grass movement; asks for donations. Website basically explains that taxes on the rich are too high and can't be raised (statistics are wrong). Video ads claim that the health care reform bill will increase the deficit (in contradiction to the Congressional Budget Office estimate, that it will reduce the deficit).

"Defeat the Debt" is part of an anti-labor, anti-poor, anti-consumer, anti-U.S. front group that is wholly motivated by money and hatred of the working class.
So now, everywhere you go you see ads for "Defeat the Debt." What's that all about?

Oh, it's basically a bunch of rich folks trying to pull the same bullshit they've used since 1981, destroying education and infrastructure, leaving poor children to rot in homeless shelters, and terrorize workers so they'll tolerate any cruelty the managers want to inflict.
