We are high school students and it is not the end of the world when we lose. "everybody wins" is a concept that I don't like. When losing matches, I usually am mad and feel as though we should win. Then I realize that the teams we faced won fair and square and we are not as good as them and I gain a respect for those teams.

I agree with something Travis Hoffman said in another thread,

Cooperate BEHIND the curtain; compete IN FRONT OF it. Merge the two to get your "coopertition". That formula has worked for years.
