"It's only a game" when they're winning?

adaptability, experience,
and sportsmanship are
all necessary for winning.

Those that know how to win are
much more numerous than
those who know how to make
proper use of their victories.

stand for something. If you don't stand for
something, what do you win?

gain anything by winning.

guy and win. I said that if I was playing

You can stand tall without standing on someone.
You can be a victor without having victims.
?Harriet Woods
