Obviously, winning is important...otherwise there is no reason for a scoreboard or practicing. The object of a contest is to win. But sportsmanship is JUST as important, especially to a quality coach.
That's how it should be unfortunately you get overzealous moms and dads who feel their children are all superstars & will get a scholarship or play pro something. That's the travesty of it all. Sportsmanship, sadly is often overlooked.
Apparently, the conservative core of the country pretty strictly disagrees with this statement, at least as regards the lower classes. If you've lost, you obviously didn't play the game correctly. Because somehow everyone who plays "right" wins.
Sort of, but mostly disagree. I don't think it matters if you win or lose OR how you play the game. It's called a game for a reason. It only matters that you have fun. If it isn't fun, it isn't much of a game - or you aren't doing it right.
Both. Good sportsmanship is very important, but winning is awesome! I do not condone winning at all costs, but I do think one should try to win. BTW, good sportsmanship is just as important for the winners to have.
I'm sorry, Miss Em. But, if ANY team had to take the Western Conference from the Champs, I'm glad it was the Kings. Now, I take Kings over Rangers. Are ya with me?...
