Obtuse? Please....go look up the word before using it.
You are reaching and grabbing random arguments to prove your opinion. I won't answer each of the pointless questions you asked me. You already know my answers.
Real World? Here's the real world..
My son wins about 80% of his bouts. Many of these by a pretty big margin. Oh and he tries to do this as fast as possible. (purely for the selfish reason of having more rest time between opponents)
Real world....many college coaches are begging my son to attend their school. Be on their team.
And since you brought up the military, this includes the coach of the Air Force Academy. They don't see this as bad behavior either.
Ask yourself why the Air Force Academy highly recruits gifted athletes. And by that I mean smart, honorable, winning athletes.
You can use the words “OBVIOUS HUMILIATION” all you want. It does not make it so.
I pray that your absurd opinion of sports and winning is confined to a very small percentage of Americans.
If the majority of America thinks like you, we are doomed.
No excellence would ever be achieved.
I'm sorry you can't see or appreciate the enjoyment athletes receive when competing.
BUT.....last I checked, no one made you the judge and jury on sporting conduct or on what is right or wrong.
No person/athlete should accept the burden of guilt you are attempting to put on them. “”Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?”
Stop judging what you don't know. I'm sure you know that a better Judge is watching and keeping score. Go rest, it is not your job.
I will leave you alone to simmer in your hatred for winners.
If that is not true then you want us to believe you are able to read the minds of people you don't know.
Either way, I will step aside. The more you post, the more you prove me right.
I know you, you are the owner of the Land Rover SUV with a bumpersticker that said “Number two is the first loser!” I read it while inching toward a bridge toll gate. Your vehicle was, oh perhaps the 15th in the line, and you were totally clueless that the bumpersticker could be easily applied to you in that situation! Or maybe it wasn’t you!
