Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5326783, member: 12088"] I don’t think in terms of worthiness or having earned something. These are metaphors that don’t fit the situation very well. For example, Sarah was awesome last season and it’s hard to imagine her to starting but this isn’t because she’s worthy or somehow earned a spot last season. What we really mean, I suspect, is that someone who played as well as she did last season is most likely to win a spot this season by her effort and talent in practice. It all starts anew each season. We see continuity from year to year only because the kids who won the competition in practice one season are likely to win it again the following season. No one will outcompete Sarah this fall because of how good she is and how hard she competes. Same for Azzi. Everything else is up for grabs. I suspect Serah will win a starting spot, but that’s just a guess based on watching tapes of last season. I suspect KK and Ash will not be outcompeted either. [/QUOTE]
