Actually, if one is in a competition and DOESN'T want to win, he starts behaving like an upstart. Everything is directed to the persons who forced him to join the competition as though to say to them, "Let's see you get me out of this."

It's the same thing whenever children are forced by their parents to join contests. They say or do something to punish the parents AND NO ONE ELSE somewhere along the line. They get sick, they throw tantrums, they send out zingers, they turn into black holes.
