It's been said that Tennesseans hate losing more than we love winning. I would bet that most of us can relate to that.
That's not just Tennesseans, Hacksaw, that's human nature. A Nobel-prize winning economist included it in his model called "prospect theory." More in the public eye, former tennis champion Jimmy Connors was quoted as saying the same thing, almost word for word ("I hate to lose more than I love to win").
So yeah, it's a pretty normal thing.
