Jicecone, fair enough.

Yes, it does matter to me if we win or lose. But it matters a great deal more if we tried hard and showed good sportsmanship.

Losing a game and dealing with adversity in sports is its best lesson to me. Just like sports, life isn't always fair. The point is to make it as fair as possible, but it just isn't fair. Take your lumps and move on. Tomorrow is a new day. You can't learn that if you never win or lose. How do you teach humility when you win, and pride in your efforts if you lose if you don't experience an outcome.

Not keeping score enforces that nothing matters, and that's just not reality.

Thanks for responding to my original post (seriously), and good luck to you too.
