We wanna start thinking like a real country, like Germany or Latvia (ha ha), we should rear the young sports stars on �Be the best in the world�.or find a new home�. That�s the mentality that we need, instead of this bullshit tripe we dish out to ill looking children to make them feel good�.what the fuck? With this negative tone, ambition goes straight out the window, it says to me �No matter how shit you do, we�ll treat you like a winner�. What possible motivation could you have if you�re gonna get treated the same win, lose or draw? Parents should help by telling their children �Yes, I will love you more if you win� or �No, Christmas is only a celebration for those who succeed�. It seems brutal but is worth it in the end. It is the type of saying that makes you feel good when you get �Gifted� the �Biggest effort award� or �Most improved player��..who the hell wants that? It�s like going to the generation game and coming away with just the cuddly toy. You know it and I know it, it�s just a fake award given to that loser kid who couldn�t play�..but now he can�t play a little better.
It�s not the problem giving out the awards, it�s the loser kid (and all his shitty friends) believe that this token well done is as good or even better than �Best player� or �1ST place�. This sissy, effort bullshit is false advertising and shouldn�t be made to sound good when they don�t require you to excel to obtain. They should call these farcical awards real names, with an honest representation of how and why it was awarded, like the �If you think I�m shit now, you should have seen me last year� award or the �I get an award every season because everyone feels sorry for me because of my tic/skin condition/haircut� award and my personal favourite, the �I turn up every meeting, training session and match, I never play, but I don�t moan� award. If awards were labelled honestly and we cut out this �Never mind, you tried your best and that�s all we can ask� attitude (cause lets face it, it's not the most we could ask, how's about winning for once?) we�d progress on the world stage. Not only that, but kids would know precisely why the got awards and they wouldn�t be disillusioned by dreams of sporting success; they�d know their awards weren�t gained through radical physical prowess, more sympathy.
Any how��it�s talk for losers.
