I'm a sore loser.  Big time.  If I can't win, I don't want to play.  I've always been this way.  As a kid, I'd cry every time I lost.  People would say, "It's just a game, Dave.  Don't be such a sore loser."  And I would think, "I wouldn't be such a sore loser if I could just win a few times.  Jerk." 

Here I am, 26 damn years old, and I'm still a sore loser.  I thought I'd grow out of it.  I thought I'd finally realize that life isn't all about winning, it's how you play the game.  Or maybe I could come to the realization that there are winners and losers, and even the most famous winners have lost at some point in their lives.  Or maybe that a winning attitude is what it's all about. 

But all those stupid quips about winning and losing never helped.  It's all about winning.  If you can't win, don't play.  It's not how you play the game, it's about winning.  A winning attitude isn't worth squat if you lose in the end. 

This is obviously an issue for me. #sports
