Guys who totally poo-poo competition are pretty much fucksticks. Don’t judge just by what the loudest/dumbest (usually those go hand in hand) have to say on the Internet.

The louder they are, the less likely that they know anything.

Another reason I like competition. Let’s see who is willing to actually stand up, demonstrate and be measured by his/her peers vs. just talk about it.
It’s one thing to claim you know what you’re talking about. It’s another to earn a Distinguished/Master/whatever/etc. rating from a national-level organization proving it.

There’s definitely something to be said for being able to stand and deliver when a bunch of people are watching you being measured.
