I don’t know. Looking back, I think that this whole ordeal hurt my opinions of a few people who participated in it.
I know that maybe one party wronged the other somewhere in the past, but if the party who was wronged would have just maintained their upright and good natured attitude toward the other party without all the drama, I would have looked even more highly on them. That doesn’t mean they have to endorse actions or attitudes. It just means that being a decent human being in every situation, even when you don’t feel like it, looks much more appealing to me.
I guess I am just a little disappointed that people act this way toward one another.
I just wish everyone would mind their own business, be honest, and shake the other guy’s hand after the competition. It really isn’t that hard if you are a mentally stable, emotionally secure person who understands that lifting weights is not a life and death matter.
