Oh, I completely agree. I was just responding to the quote by the OP: "Most athletes that I know of are not in it to win it." I do think the powerhouse teams do play to win and the desire to win a certainly a good thing. Of course, if taken too far (such as winning at all costs by cheating), the desire can have negitive impacts. I do not think we are at that stage, yet.
