Sportsmanship at it's finest ...

Beat a team in 4 games in the semis earlier this week. Now mind you my team had the best run differential and best record in the league. And I get this message the morning after ...

WOW..THAT SUCKED..

I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW YOUR TEAM GETS DOUBLE DIGIT HITS EVERY GAME WITH NO MONEY SPENT ON OFFENSE..

WHAT A JOKE...

CONGRATS...GOOD LUCK IN WS.

Not gonna name names, it's not important, just thought it was kinda funny. (Oh yeah, and we only had double digit hits in 2 of the 4 games.)

When you can snatch the pebble from my hand ....

Probably a flaw in my personality but I would have been tempted to reply and apologize for being so much better at building a team. Might have even offered to give lessons for the right fee.

Disciple Caine: Master, do we seek victory in contention?
Master Kahn: Seek rather not to contend.
Caine: But shall we not then be defeated?
Master Kahn: We know that where there is no contention, there is neither defeat nor victory. The supple willow does not contend against the storm, yet it survives.
Master Kahn: Avoid, rather than check. Check, rather than hurt. Hurt, rather than maim. Maim, rather than kill. For all life is precious, nor can any be replaced.

Caine: Master, is there any limit on the depth of Hals suckage?

So how many will admit that to at least some degree Master Kahn and when he was older Disciple Caine formed some part of the foundation of our values.

it made me quit eating chocolate covered grasshoppers! does that count?
