      It's not about winning, it's about being invited to play more games in the future.

    I disagree with this one. One must always play fairly. Period.

    Hi Kenna this quote immediately took me to when I played sports . Playing sports taught one about teamship, working with rules and playing a good yet fair game

      I can see how this quote applies to sports. I, too, played sports. We were taught the same thing but what if the ref didn't see your team's unintentional penalty. Would you point it out?
