Refreshing comment from player/coach

[Rusty Gilbert]

There is an art to losing with dignity, and one to winning with dignity.

Too often those who come out on the losing end of athletic contests cry "we were robbed"--the handiest excuse for why they can't find a decent reason for their collapse. The convenience of blaming "bad calls" or "willfully biased officiating" (euphemism for cheating) is the dodge of choice among teams that cannot stand to give proper credit to their opponents for being better....or proper blame to themselves for not being good enough!

However, it is refreshing when some athletes and some coaches rise above the crowd.

Thanks, Mark, for reminding us that these kinds of "good sports" do still exist!
