Winners and losers.

There’s a cruelty about spectator sports. I root for my team. To pull out a dramatic victory. With a storybook finish. Doesn’t matter that breaks the hearts of the opponent’s fans. They go home disappointed. Chagrined. In the doldrums. Meanwhile, I’m elated. Focused on my happiness. Hardly thinking of the sadness of others. A bit cruel, isn’t it? Downright inconsiderate.  But that’s the nature of life. And sports. Winners and losers. –Jim Broede
