We seem to have this inner desire to be the top dog -- doing things quicker and smarter. It is sort of like self-preservation. We desire to go the distance through all hardships and never stop. This nature is very profound in athletes but we all have it to some degree. We are naturally competitive and sometimes even with ourselves. In sports, we usually always are supportive of a person or team even if we don t like sports or never participate in them. Sports have been around for about as long as mankind. And, we always want to be winners. It s funny to see people who are typically quiet and in self-control go crazy and lose it at the stock car races. We typically have no control over it.
