Tying Is For Sissies!

“Winning is habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.” – Vince Lombardi

I just got home from a local brewery and got to thinking… “Damn, why is everyone such a sissy”?

It seems nowadays people are more than complacent with mediocrity, being average and finishing in second place. I say this because as I was sitting at the bar tossing back a fine local India Pale Ale the bartender muttered… “I’d consider it a win if we just tied”.

He was referring to the soccer match between the USA and Mexico. Now, keep in mind, I know nothing of soccer (or football for those of you outside the USA). However, I do know about being competitive and winning. Hearing this guy say that he would consider a tie a win made me feel… well, like this…
