Oh, but John...You forgot. Those people who are living in their parent’s basement, which is filled with Participation Trophies, are infinitely smarter than those who lead the previous 41 attempts.

Don’t believe it? Just ask them.

BOL! Thanks for posting this reality. Years ago a grand son was on 3 championship little league teams coached by the same coaches. He like his dad and grand dad had the following genetic blessing.

All of us are right handed and right eyed. If you bat right handed with both eyes open, you can have an amazing high batting average.

So the city this grandson lived in, broke up the winning team, and he ended up with a sad sack bunch of losing non athletes.
At the end of a terrible season, he got a participation trophy. His sister told him that meant he was a loser on a loser team.

A week later, he removed his name from the trophy and sold it for $10 at a neighborhood garage sale on their cul de sac.

He kept and still has his 3 championship trophies.
