What's Wrong With Being Number Two?


Here's an interesting quote from a book I read recently, called Tuesdays with Morrie:

"It is 1979, a basketball game in the Brandeis gym. The team is doing well, and the student section begins a chant, 'We're number one! We're number one!' Morrie is sitting nearby. He is puzzled by the cheer. At one point, in the midst of 'We're number one!', he rises and yells, 'What's wrong with being number two?' The students look at him. They stop chanting. He sits down, smiling and triumphant." (Tuesdays with Morrie)

I guess I'm about number 10, when compared to the other Poker bloggers, but Morrie seems to think that it just doesn't matter as long as I can enjoy the game. Having said that, though, I don't really enjoy Poker when I'm not winning.

Also, Morrie's way can help people to enjoy their lives, it's hardly conducive towards human progress. Imagine every politician fought to become number two. There'd be no one to run the country!
