Comments on: Keeping Score http://blog.sixteengoldgloves.com/2007/09/09/keeping-score/ where the Orioles are all that matters, which brings up the question is there anything else that does?

I'm far from perfect, but it makes me think more of a relative who makes our family life particularly challenging. The reason? This person only keeps score when they feel that they've been wronged. The result is ridiculous accusations that, given a more complete scorecard, would be easily refuted. Interesting thoughts. Thanks for sharing. We could all benefit from an intensified focus on how to improve our relationships with other people.
