biking has habit of beeing sportmanship towards others especially if there's technical problem, obviously by the 'book' he should've waited him but like u said its a race..
Rules and law(s) mean the same, they are just two words for it. Check out football rules - they are called Laws of the Game. The point is, they have normative character. Normative - means "how it should be".
Anyway, many philosophers agreed that, basicly, there are written rules (lowest level) and there are more important unwritten rules (either God's laws or natural laws). Moral laws were in the past considered important, and people didn't need something to be wirrten on paper to obey that. Refer to Kant. Now ethics are redundant and nobody cares about them and that is just sad.
Hmmwah I don't know shit about cycling although when I watch it I always hear the commentators saying that the sportsmanship disappeared and the only thing which is important now, is the importance of the team, money, sponsors blabla..
I was just surprised a fin is interested in cycling hence my comment!
We're lucky we still have a sport where sportmanship is valued so highly. Sure it's still a race, but let it be a race between the real skill & power of the racers instead of a race between the least mechanical problems or falls.
well perhaps sportmanship is still valued so highly however I always feel like the one who wins a cycling round is the one who is best prepared by means of drugs, fresh blood cells and all that kind of crap.
I don't trust a single one of em
Most laws are made based on what average person would do/wouldn't do (stealing, killing etc), so I think there is at least a small link between them.
