I think you missed the point of what I was saying, which was in response to your position - and you'll be hard-pressed to find where I wrote 'wins or nothing'... if I'd actually said that, then, yes, it would have been churlish. I was discussing the power of words in setting goals for a vision. And resorting to put-downs doesn't strengthen your argument.
It's okay to have a stated goal to 'win' you know, Pauly, in fact it's preferable. It's equally okay to be intolerant of losing.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
