So bottom line, if you jump in and try and compete, don't leave your teammates behind. Don't give up in the middle of this season and say "oh well, it's over". Go and join another board if that's what you might do. Here, they may say it's only for fun, but you tell me any kid that doesn't keep score and wouldn't mind looking at this avatar or one with this hard bod custom made? It ain't going to happen this year with this hottie! She didn't like not being first.
So ask yourself before you sign up, will you be there in the end?
