To the OP, You will find that a good many guard players are not out to win every game, they are out to have fun. To many the guard is not about being a superhuman, it calls out to the "average" joe" and reminds us that an individual can make a difference without having to be 8 feet tall and carrying a huge gun. We know it isnt the most competetive army but we simply dont care. At least thats the frame of mind ive seen in most of us guard players anecdotaly.
