The night our team won the national championship, at the celebration party, the sponsor's daughter, also our team manager, Vivian Feron, was working the room with her professional smile. Then the star player from our rival team walked over. He only had eyes for Vivian. "Vivian, congratulations. But honestly, this ragtag team doesn't deserve your skills. Come to our club. I promise your talent will finally get the stage it needs." I watched the fake smile on Vivian's face disappear. For a moment, she hesitated. Then her eyes hardened. The next day, with our team's core tactical data and two of our star players, she jumped ship. I called her. "Why?" "Your idealism is a cage. You trapped everyone in it. I want wins and commercial value, not to play house with you." The line went dead.
