Re: Gracious Proffesionalism VS Competition

On the whole exposing weakness thing, I personally believe that GP means helping others in the pits, with mentoring, on CD forums etc. But to go easy on them in competition is insulting, no one wants to win when their opponent lets them win. On the field you give it your all, no exceptions, anything less isn't in the spirit of competition. Insulting "weaker" teams by going easy on them isn't in the spirit of GP at all. If you win great, if not, you tried your hardest, and if you do end up crushing a team, you tell them they played hard and fair and that it was a good match. Nothing more, nothing less.
