Largely because we've created a myth about it. It's much better to think of a heroic defeat than a stupid one.
Heck, our poetry is classified as pre Kosovo, Kosovo, post Kosovo and a bonus round for Prince Marko.
Also, ironically the historical Marko was the exact opposite of the poetic Marko, who is also revered by Macedonians and Bulgarians (because his fiefs were there).
Plus it later became useful as a focal point. A point of unity.

One side gets pounded into submission in under three months.
