I disagree with Bruce Springsteen when he says, “Remember, nobody wins unless everybody wins.” That’s a very liberal way of thinking. I can think of many sports, mainly wrestling where that’s not true. Along with many real world experiences and health issues that have proven this statement false. Mr. Springsteen is miss-lead in his quote about winning. Wrestling does not owe anyone anything. Let’s go back to state wrestling.

It’s unfair to say that my dad’s friend is winning, however the doctor making thousands a day is definitely winning. Once again, Mr. Springsteen is wrong.
Bruce Springsteen is incorrect when he states that, “nobody wins unless everybody wins.” Wrestling proves this, the business world proves this, and the health issues people have proves this. However, these examples are just the tip of the iceberg. It is just unrealistic to say everyone can win. Without losers, there wouldn't be
