A lack of focus can creep into teams/people, especially when things are going so smoothly for them. You do hear about it in other professions all the time when it's serious enough to hear about, it's part of what keeps your local news agencies employed. The thing is unless you're involved in those professions you're not generally going to hear about what caused that happening, just that it happened.
Yeah you hear about people losing focus, slipping up, slacking off, etc. But is it the exact same people every 10 -12 months for infinity? Probably not because they wouldn't still have a job. I think it's something unique to sports.
You can take a two week vacation from your job, not practice it at all and come back without needing to review tape of what your duties consist of. A surgeon doesn't have to cut someone open every week to stay fresh. A teacher can take a 3 month break over summer without having to go to Teacher Camp before the new year starts.
It's every single year. They underestimate their opponent. Have a wack game plan. Come out with no fire. However you want to describe it. Every single season they need a wake up call or a reminder to stay focused. That's like needing to be hit upside the head with a brick once a year to remember that it hurts. Makes no sense to me.
