''Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or loosing."
~Chick Moorman

Mr. Moorman says that winning or loosing doesn't really matter if you choose the right, be fair, and be honorable. In a way its true because some people should be greatful in a competition. Some people who loose don't even feel honored and curse out loud. Even winners who won, curse and show aggression. That's actually choosing the wrong, and it is unneccessary to hear that. That's also being a BAD SPORT. Usually a bad sport would curse for no reason. A bad sport might even cheat in order to win, and that's being unfair. If a person is exposed and everyone finds out about them being a bad sport then they can't rely on those people. People who cheat don't achieve integrity. However, a GOOD SPORT would do what's right, what's fair, and what's honorable. A good sport would take pride in loosing, and would be proud if they try. A good sport wouldn't curse with victory, drink with victory, or show aggression with victory. These people play good with the rules and follow them. Not only that, but they are also obedient within the game. Loosing might seem bad, but to make it so far in a contest or competition is something to be proud of. An example would be a basketball player who gave it his best shot and lost. He played fair, and he still gets to play. However some NBA players choose the wrong, win unfairly, and are later disqualified and kicked out of the team. This is alos useful for not just sports but when it comes to competitions in general, you have to play fair, right, and be an honorable person, because at the end of the day, that's what matters most.
