second to last blog :)

This article that I read was about people basking in the reflected glory of others. In other words, it's about how people glow because of other's good news or get upset or angry by other's bad news. I found it interesting that after a sports game in either high school, college, or professional are spoke of differently. When the team people are cheering for wins, they say "WE WON!!" but if the team they are cheering for lost, they would say "they lost" losing the we and replacing it with a they, not being apart of the actual team as it would seem in the first example 'we won'. This is most likely because people wanted to be associated with people and things that do well so it will make them look better than what they do. That is also why people tend to act indifferent when their favorite teams lose, because they don't want to be thought bad of.
