I think so. Football players jump each other like horny baboons when they score, swimmers almost drown in their ecstacy of winning. Like fools they wave their flowers or cup on the podium, like a toddler waves its drawing. A little modesty please?
That kind of behaviour is bad for social health. Because when there are winners, there are also losers.
Because losing is unhealthy for the self esteem, divisions and leagues are invented. Someone that is a complete loser in second division can still be champion in first division. This way every athlete is winner and loser at the same time.
As a sucker you can still win from other suckers. On the Paralympics one legged athletes compete with one legged athletes, mongols with mongols, blind people with blind people.
This way everybody wins a cup. Seems like a bunch of toddlers competing instead of a real sports game.
