In which Masque explains how possessing the Heart of a Champion is a logical consequence of living in Scientific Society. Or is it the other way round?
It's the other way around. It's because one has the heart of a champion, moreover any adversity and opposition that fails to see the bigger more beautiful and yet realistic picture of a future, that producing the scientific society miracle is possible one day.
This is an example of not giving up even if it starts badly.
However the ultimate example where both teams are super strong and a comeback is ridiculously unlikely from down 9 with 1 min left, unless you have the heart of a champion, is from basketball's worldcup 1986 (some of the greatest players ever in this match) ;
The actual final that year had more of the same especially given that this was not yet a dream team mix from the US; That ought to tell you a lot about these non NBA players that defeated that soviet team of monsters.
Europe is gonna happen. Heart of Champion strikes again, Germany for example, Switzerland also and now its up to Argentina to come back from the abyss.
Open up the draw. Tomorrow's england vs belgium game will be fascinating as both need to finish 2nd in the group rather than1st. Currently all level except engalnd are top on the fair play rules by virtue of one less yellow card.
chances of 0-0 with a record number of yellow cards and missed penalties?
It counts more if you make the ball come back after going first in.
It counts even more if you make the ball come back after going first in and the referee doesnt see it and the goal never counts.
And yet it counts the most when you make the ball come back after first going in and the referee doesnt see and the goal never counts and that was all your intention precisely, making it so close in real time so as to introduce finally the VAR system.
In reality of course probable is what usually happens and one should imagine simply that the player wanted to score sending the ball a little high but not really hit the bar. That was never the plan but well we will go for it now because that's what we call glorious history! One however is still left wondering whether it really was his intention, because after all he was chasing it all his life... Give him at least that small chance because it makes kids dream big as they always should! So do it for the kids then! Imagine it to be true. It may lead to something far more glorious and true eventually!
Ideally one lives in the kind of world that after scoring this way you go to the referee and tell him he shouldn't count it. But we do not live in this kind of world. We live in the kind of world that character rarely wins the day. That is ok though. Settle for winning the era instead with a true synthesis that only someone with character can deliver. Now go out and be that someone.
