Urkel's dirty little secret - I could not care less about winning. Or bouting, for that manner. Victory, meh. Attention, yuck. Give me a good clinic or scrimmage or practice any day. Meh. So what's the point, then?
The point is the process and the learning. There is a fun little thing called "flow state" which occurs when your brain is engrossed with something, it is essentially the healthiest mental state that exists. Derby has flow states up the butt, yo. Essentially no one ever gets "good", you just continue to suck but on vastly different levels. For someone who wilts from boredom, this sport is a fucking joy.
Which is why I don't use my lawyer derby on the track and I actually, you know, play. All earnest and shit. Disappointing, I know.
