All talk, no fight
Quite a lot has been thrown back and forth over that last week or two. Not a few insults, and quite a lot of screed. Unreadable screed. Seems to me that there is a time for talk, and then there is a time when talking is done and you either answer the bell, tow the line and show what you're made of, or you tuck tail and run.
Now if you answer the bell, tow the line and commence the fight, there is honor found in that. If you tuck tail and run, there isn't any honor in that. I'll offer the observation that many would agree with; one observes that those that tuck tail and run find it necessary to compensate with yet more talk. More talk leading to yet more unreadable screed.
Stand and fight. Or don't. Today's events record that Destiny fell from their perch atop the league ranking. Today Emperors gave them a chance to stand and fight. Destiny chose to tuck tail and run. Like a whipped cur. The consequence of their cowardice is their league rank took a tumble. Their course to remedy the consequence of their flight: more talk.
