Me or Them
October 20, 2008You can be assured that this question is asked many times when we play. Countless players have brainwashed themselves or yelled it out. You’ll also see them shake their heads in dismay.

In our dismay, we always seem to pick ourselves up from those losses, and go on , only to find we occasionally lose it all to continued illogical players.
