kevin_standlee: (Not Sensible)
Something that surely isn't original with me but that I've been developing over the last few weeks is a thesis regarding the relationship between a stable democratically run society and good sportsmanship.

You can skip the politics if you aren't interested )

Could we possibly get a more civil society if we invested more in teaching children to lose gracefully, but also not insulating them from the concept of losing? In other words, winning is good, but losing isn't necessarily bad. And yes, "It's How You Play the Game" should be a core moral concept in my opinion.
