SCOREBOARD ANSWERS CONFUSING HARD LIFE QUESTIONS

Scoreboard shows winners and losers in a particular moment.

Then the contest is over.

The winners celebrate, the losers walk away.

At least that’s what is supposed to happen.

What too many do instead is take a loss as an indictment of their life.

“I’m a loser, I’ve always been a loser. I’m the biggest loser ever.”

Those are the words from what would be called a ‘sore loser.’

Other sore loser words: “I was cheated. It was rigged. The scoreboard is wrong.”

Who does a sore loser do next?

First they look for someone to blame. Next, they seek someone to amplify their hurt feelings.

A horse-man, a great winner, takes his losses out on horses.

Baffert’s horses have won a record seven Kentucky Derbies, seven Preakness Stakes, and three Belmont Stakes. And both horses who have earned the illustrious Triple Crown in the modern era — American Pharoah in 2015 and Justify three years later — trained under the 2009 inductee to the National Museum of Racing’s Hall of Fame.

Over four decades, nearly 30 horses failed drug tests while training under Baffert, according to the Association of Racing Commissioners International. A litany of excuses and ever-shifting goalposts have allowed the white-haired multi-millionaire to continue his dominance of the sport.

Confusing Hard Life Questions

What does an unhappy citizen do when faced with government intervention?

This is one tactic:

This is another:

No one expects concerned citizens to face tanks with a bag or gas up and light the fire.

In some nations voting is the better tool. Cast a vote for people and issues you believe in. Vote against people and issues you don’t support or believe in.

Nations that vote are called democracies.

Democracy (Greek: δημοκρατία, dēmokratiā, from dēmos ‘people’ and kratos ‘rule’) is a form of government in which the people have the authority to deliberate and decide legislation (“direct democracy”), or to choose governing officials to do so (“representative democracy”).

Every candidate and issue on a ballot end up on the scoreboard declaring the winners and losers.

In the best of times we accept election results and work to change if we voted for the losing person or issue. In the worst of times?

Wrong Answer To Scoreboard Question

One sitting President lost reelection and called on people to protest.

No one faced down a line of tanks, or set themselves on fire. Instead they took a different action.

A fired up section of people followed their leader’s words if not action.

It felt like an echo of history.

Only part of Russia—Moscow, Petrograd, and much of the industrial heartland—was under Bolshevik control. The countryside belonged to the Socialist Revolutionaries. Given the Bolshevik desire to dominate the whole of Russia and the rest of the former tsarist empire, civil war was inevitable.

That was a Russian scoreboard. America is different?

Jan. 6 and the ongoing investigations will show how different.

Although no one faced down a line of tanks, or set themselves on fire, too many of the people following the former president are still suffering from his reluctance to address the covid virus early.

They reject the covid vaccine developed by a modern medicine process, but still go to the hospital emergency departments for modern medical treatment for their illness.

Someone tell me how this is supposed to make sense so my readers in far away places can get a better understanding of scoreboard.
