In Response To: The Golden Rule of ..... Backgammon? (Stick)

"Never do anything on court that doesn’t help you win."

So ... from this "absurdly obvious" maxim, Stick gets:

"... I have since vowed to ignore the dice and the piss poor level of my opponent's play and concentrate only on what I can control, making the correct decisions to give myself the maximum opportunity to win the match."

And Allan Fox gets, apparently: I vow to be an emotional abusive ass only when it stimulates my play, intimidates the officials, and disturbs my opponents.
