Honesty can sometimes be so brutal to take in. It's usual to get so drowned in perceived idealism that you can't seem to separate it from honest reality. If, and when, you can separate the two, the gaiety of fantasy is destroyed. Some of the most common ideals are found in the realm of sports, where players are able to be superstars without having to play all that hard.

A player on a good team will often be paid more money than one on a bad team. This is because the bad team plays hard but doesn't win enough games and will likely end up getting no-cut fired and thrown away like an old paper plate.
