I am reading a book called Tiger, meet my sister. It is a book written by a sports writer. His name is Rick Reilly and he is ESPN columnist. The story was about Eli and Peyton Manning. Eli was 17 and Peyton was 23 and attending college. They were playing one on one basketball and it was basically tackle basketball. Nobody got an open layup and nobody fouled out and nobody was a good loser. It was decided that the boys would have a rematch the next time Peyton came home from college. The next time he came back they grabbed a basketball and headed out to play. The basketball goal was gone. Just gone. Dad had taken it off the wall. Mom made him.
Athletes are very competitive. That competitiveness is what helps them to excel above their competition. That desire to win and being a good loser do not go together. It goes together like peanut butter and tuna or ham and jelly. That sounds terrible. What do you do to stop your children from hurting each other to win a game of one on one basketball ? No hoop.
