One of the great joys I've gotten from high level competition (state am. sen. am stuff) is the association with other good and much better players. I golf my ball, they golf theirs ... the best man wins... afterwards we have dinner.. the next year I see the same faces and we genuinely enjoy seeing and playing with each other.... why would I want to behave like a 4 yr. old and ruin that? ....anyone who would delibrately try to annoy another person in a feeble attempt to win....would look inadequate and foolish and needs some help.
