                    [Summary] => In sports, nobody wants to lose and it's tough to accept defeat. This is why athletes and sportsmen who can't take losing well end up "pikon," and are labeled as "sore losers." And the reason why they lost is always something else other than their own doing. "Tua ni pusta ang mga ref sa pikas. Lima-Walo ang duwa." "The judges were handpicked to assure the local boy a win. " "Tikasan na sila." Sound familiar? Have you found yourself in a similar situation, lately? I have, and it's really tough to accept.
