Is winning everything?

[cosmojado]

quoth the pointy ball coach..............winning isn't everything, its the only thing

[afgrijselijkheid]

it's the initial thing... but it can certainly be put into persective from time to time

[KDdidit]

I'd prefer draws.

[srd....]

guaranteed it is.....who wants to a loser???

[srd....]

ahem......that should have been "to be a loser"

It's not that simple. At the level of a professional league, it's everything. Almost anything below that, it's fun.

Winning makes you a winner, and losing makes you a loser. It just depends which one you would rather be.

PS, Lombardi said it best.

Depends on your definition of winning I suppose. Should the South Korean team be regarded as losers because they only made the world cup semi final?

I'd say anyone who exceeds expectations can consider it a job well done, even if they didn't win the ultimate prize. Portsmouth, for example, were tipped by nearly everyone to be relegated by christmas. Is their, in the end, quite comfortable survival something to be praised, or should they be condemned as rubbish for being so far behind Arsenal in the title race?
