[QUOTE="cpf2001, post: 949491, member: 6459"] You talk about the will to perform not being there without competition, without winners or losers. But nobody's proposing some sort of "every team wins half their games!" system. The post you’re replying to just said it can [B]also[/B] be destroyed in other conditions, such as monopolistic/oligarchist ones where you don’t appear to matter and aren’t recognized. Sports are different from business competition. You're there because of merit, sure, but you're also limited because most of the time, you can't transform yourself to Lebron levels of merit. And if your teammate is getting a million bucks while you're getting a small stipend, nobody should be surprised if the team chemistry rots and you say "screw it, this isn't worth it to me." And at a program/fanbase level - you're trying to transform yourself from a loser to a winner, but the winners are spending $$$$$ to try to [B]prevent that[/B] such as by poaching all your most promising players in the transfer portal - at some point... why bother?
