Good Sportsmanship



Good Sportsmanship by Richard Armour
Good sportsmanship we hail, we sing.
It’s always pleasant when you spot it.
There’s only one unhappy thing:
You have to lose to prove you’ve got it.

Watch this touching story of good sportsmanship from an American high school basketball team. As the commentor said: The decision wasn't obvious...but it was the right thing to do.
Here is another example of good sportsmanship...amazing!!
I guess we must take the good with the bad...here is a Top 10 of the worst sportsmanship.
And finally, one last glimpse of poor sporstmanship.

A Class Divided







We had such an interesting discussion on discrimination and racism after watching the documentary A Class Divided. What a powerful lesson for people to learn. It's just too bad there is still a need to have to teach people to empathize with one another and treat people with compassion and respect. Imagine how wonderful our world would be without all the -isms and discrimination...
