I’ve always been a winner, and let me tell you an important fact: winners do not belong in the same category as losers.
Losers are ugly and stupid. That’s why they lose.
When you put winners in the same category as losers, you don’t bring up the losers, you only drag down the winners.
It’s time for winners to rise up and lash out against the losers who have been stealing our glory.
Three US Republican state senators want to ban trophies being given out in youth sports to people “based solely on their participation”.
A North Carolina General Assembly bill states that awards should only be presented to children based on “identified performance achievements”.
The proposed ban would apply to government-run youth sports leagues, but still needs support from the state senate to become law.
However, some parents said the bill was simply “deflecting” from more important issues, such as the safety of pupils in the wake of the school shooting in Nashville last month which saw six people killed, including three nine-year-old children.
The Eliminate Participation Trophies bill is sponsored by state senators Timothy Moffitt, Eddie Settle and Bobby Hanig.
Mr Hanig told the Queen City News (QCN) that participation trophies teach children to “just be OK”.
He said: “When kids are growing up they’re being taught it’s okay to just be OK. You don’t have to be the best.”
North Carolina state representative Deb Butler led criticism of the bill, telling the Asheville Citizen Times the proposals were a “colossal waste of time”.
Some parents told the QCN there were bigger issues to be tackling at the moment.
“It’s not logical,” said one parent. “That’s not talking about the issues, that’s deterring from the conversation. That’s deflecting”.
Yeah, it’s not important to you – it’s important to winners who have to sit and watch losers be treated like winners.
What is the point of winning if losers get the same prize???
Losers are trying to drag us down to their level. That is the philosophy of communism.
We want winners who win big. We’ve had enough of the losers. We let losers run America for years and it didn’t work out. It’s time to bring back winners.
