I've seen it - you've seen it. 

The desire to win at all cost. Or the desire to win at the expense of respecting your partner.

A post on Aspen Kern's Facebook forum prompted this episode of The PB 5.0 Podcast. I read it to you in the final 15 or so minutes of the show ... don't miss it even if it means you will skip the first 15 minutes! 

Show highlights include:

• the headlines found in Google search - hundreds of new places to play!
• meet one of my favorite players on this island (Kauai), Diane. She's a wonderful example of playing to win AND keeping it fun.
• Pat Summitt on what the point is to winning. She is the winningest coach in Division 1 history.

Winning is FUN ... and we all love to win. I hope we think about the foundational aspects of this game and realize pickleball is more than a game to play for the purpose of winning. 

The game itself began as a time to spend with family and friends to enjoy -- the competition, community, and fun! These are the things we will remember long after the score.

Win or lose.
