In regards to point 1...
Do you not think that this is a complete contradiction to your initial post.?
Here you admit that people win on the punt. Yet your first post says that this is impossible.
Also, another thing I would like to comment on.
"(3) To witness how the naive masses, after centuries of losing, still maintain hope....... it's a poignant representation of psychology, and determination in the face of unbearable odds. It's fascinating. It's sad. And it's very, very human."
Are you talking about yourself here? Or what is it you wish to achieve by visiting a forum like this?
Are you here to preach to us? Or are you here to maintain hope, with the rest of the naive masses....?
