You know, and as we're older and as I've become older, I've calmed down. But, you know, it doesn't matter what I'm doing.
It's still that will to win, you know, and I'm much better at masking it now if I don't. But it still bothers me as much.

Yeah, I'm still trying to win, you know. Like, so my son loves to, he loves to play me at bowls because I'm useless, you know, and I just can't throw a straight bowl. So he loves playing me at that, you know, but it bugs me that I'm not better, you know. Yeah, yeah. There are certain things that I do. It really bugs me when I'm not good at it.

And I guess it's one of the reasons that, you know, long after I'd finished competition judo, people still want to train with you, you know.
