About

Isn't victory sweet? Whether it's sports or the game of life, everyone wants to end up in the winner's circle. We're even willing to go to extreme lengths - and not just to win, but to ensure that *others lose.*


We're selfish, prideful, inconsiderate, greedy, unmerciful... not because we're evil, but simply because we want to win.

The sweetness of victory that we desire is hidden in the bitterness of suffering that we avoid.
