Doing the Right Thing...

Alright guys, I have a question for you all on a matter of basketball...it would be.

Every Thursday night, KSM gets together and plays basketball on Thursday nights.

Anyways, as it would turn out, KSM is amazingly good and we just killed a team 111-37...and we very easily could have beat them by at least 100. Therein lies my question.

What is the right thing to do when you're killing a team by that many points?

I felt an odd sense of mercy for this team and really began to wonder how I should be playing in a game like this. The game was supposed to be competitive but obviously was not at all.

Any thoughts guys? How do you think you guys would have acted in that scene?

Well what would Paul or Peter do? What would the Golden Rule suggest? I doubt any of us would want to be humiliated.....so.....we probably shouldn't humiliate others when we have a chance.

Love is kind, gentle, does not behave itself unseemly.

Dad, did you type that just to impress someone...?...just kidding :o).

And Kurt, I was with you until that little bone of selfishness came out. I think you have to realize when someone is a lot better than you and pay him some respect. I could beat you by 100 points every time, but here I let you stay in the game and what do you pay me back with?
