Scoring more points than your opponent. For example, "The Saints beat the Colts. They outscored them 27-24."
They won by outscoring the opponents, the Indianapolis Colts.
The winners in tennis are the players who win matches and tournaments by outscoring their opponents.
It creates jobs there, plus the skills that go with the jobs.
Outscoring refers to the strategy of outsourcing specific business functions or processes to external service providers, often to reduce costs, improve efficiency, or access specialized expertise. This practice allows companies to focus on their core competencies while leveraging the strengths of external partners. Additionally, outscoring can enhance flexibility and scalability, enabling organizations to respond to market changes more effectively. Overall, it is a tactical decision aimed at optimizing resource allocation and operational performance.
It actually doesn't matter. You just have to beat all the other players by outscoring them, even if they get 0 points and you get one. If you know you can't beat this game, then I suggest getting in third or worse (so you don't get voted off) or save the game before you actually lose, then refresh the browser to get another minigame.
The biggest comeback in NBA history was done by the Utah Jazz, who came back from 36 points down to win on November 27th, 1996. The Sacramento Kings have the second largest comeback, coming back from 35 down to win 102-98 against the Chicago Bulls. This happened recently, on December 22nd, 2009.
There are two aspects to water polo training; skill and stamina/strength. The former is trained by practicing drills repetitively while the latter is trained by doing swimming and weights When I play water polo, I have to train on land (stamina) and in the water (skill), we run and do lots of fitness work, and then we work on how we throw and catch the ball, and do alot of swimming. Hope it helped :)

I spent a little time researching this but can't find any source for historic enrollment numbers at all of these schools. I found articles referring to Billy Packer's Wake Forest team (1962) and that could be true, although current enrollment at Wake is 4400 (undergrad). Jacksonville claims to be the smallest school to play in the championship game (1970) and their current enrollment (3400) would make them smaller than Wake now, but then? Another article (on Xavier, currently 4000 undergrads) suggested it would be the smallest "since 1979", a year in which Indiana State's Larry Bird team was the smallest (current ISU undergrad enrollment is 8000+). The other participants that year were Michigan State, DePaul (over 20,000) and Penn (notable less for its size than it's no-scholarship Ivy Leageu credentials), so I'm not sure why they chose that reference. I haven't been able to prove, therefore, that St. Bonaventure was not the smallest when it made the final four in 1970 (on Bob Lanier's big shoes and soft touch, but sadly with him on crutches). Current undergrad enrollment (2400) is, I think, only slightly higher than it was in 1970 (when they beat Davidson in the first round). I will, nevertheless, root for Davidson to establish the new mark this year. Providence College played in two final fours and they are under 4,000 in enrollment. I believe Holy Cross also played in one back in the day and they are small as well.

Globalization has various aspects which affect the world in several different ways such as:Industrial - emergence of worldwide production markets and broader access to a range of foreign products for consumers and companies. Particularly movement of material and goods between and within national boundaries.Financial - emergence of worldwide financial markets and better access to external financing for borrowers. As these worldwide structures grew more quickly than any transnational regulatory regime, the instability of the global financial infrastructure dramatically increased, as evidenced by the financial crises of late 2008.Economic - realization of a global common market, based on the freedom of exchange of goods and capital. The interconnectedness of these markets, however meant that an economic collapse in any one given country could not be contained.Political - some use "globalization" to mean the creation of a world government which regulates the relationships among governments and guarantees the rights arising from social and economic globalization. Politically, the United States has enjoyed a position of power among the world powers; in part because of its strong and wealthy economy. With the influence of globalization and with the help of The United States' own economy, the People's Republic of China has experienced some tremendous growth within the past decade. If China continues to grow at the rate projected by the trends, then it is very likely that in the next twenty years, there will be a major reallocation of power among the world leaders. China will have enough wealth, industry, and technology to rival the United States for the position of leading world power.Informational - increase in information flows between geographically remote locations. Arguably this is a technological change with the advent of fibre optic communications, satellites, and increased availability of telephone and Internet.Language - the most popular language is English. About 35% of the world's mail, telexes, and cables are in English.Approximately 40% of the world's radio programs are in English.About 50% of all Internet traffic uses English.Competition - Survival in the new global business market calls for improved productivity and increased competition. Due to the market becoming worldwide, companies in various industries have to upgrade their products and use technology skillfully in order to face increased competition.Ecological - the advent of global environmental challenges that might be solved with international cooperation, such as climate change, cross-boundary water and air pollution, over-fishing of the ocean, and the spread of invasive species. Since many factories are built in developing countries with less environmental regulation, globalism and free trade may increase pollution. On the other hand, economic development historically required a "dirty" industrial stage, and it is argued that developing countries should not, via regulation, be prohibited from increasing their standard of living.Cultural - growth of cross-cultural contacts; advent of new categories of consciousness and identities which embodies cultural diffusion, the desire to increase one's standard of living and enjoy foreign products and ideas, adopt new technology and practices, and participate in a "world culture". Some bemoan the resulting consumerism and loss of languages. Also see Transformation of culture. Spreading of multiculturalism, and better individual access to cultural diversity (e.g. through the export of Hollywood and Bollywood movies). Some consider such "imported" culture a danger, since it may supplant the local culture, causing reduction in diversity or even assimilation. Others consider multiculturalism to promote peace and understanding between peoples.Greater international travel and tourism. WHO estimates that up to 500,000 people are on planes at any time.Greater immigration, including illegal immigrationSpread of local consumer products (e.g. food) to other countries (often adapted to their culture).Worldwide fads and pop culture such as Pokémon, Sudoku, Numa Numa, Origami, Idol series, YouTube, Orkut, Facebook, and MySpace. Accessible to those who have Internet or Television, leaving out a substantial segment of the Earth's population.Worldwide sporting events such as FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games.Incorporation of multinational corporations in to new media. As the sponsors of the All-Blacks rugby team, Adidas had created a parallel website with a downloadable interactive rugby game for its fans to play and compete.Social - development of the system of non-governmental organisations as main agents of global public policy, including humanitarian aid and developmental efforts.TechnicalDevelopment of a global telecommunications infrastructure and greater transborder data flow, using such technologies as the Internet, communication satellites, submarine fiber optic cable, and wireless telephonesIncrease in the number of standards applied globally; e.g. copyright laws, patents and world trade agreements.Legal/EthicalThe creation of the international criminal court and international justice movements.Crime importation and raising awareness of global crime-fighting efforts and cooperation.The emergence of Global administrative law.
First, let's get the record set: Kobe Bryant will never be the best basketball player ever, and not even in the top 5 basketball player's ever. The best basketball player every was Michael Jordan. Anyone who wants to argue that Michael Jordan never scored 81 points in a game makes him worse is wrong. Kobe is a huge ball hog, thus he scores many points. How many assists did he have that game? That's right- less than 4. Michael Jordan could have scored 100 if he wanted, but he isn't a ball hog and understands when to score. Lebron James would be the second best and will probably the best once his career is over. The third best would be Magic Johnson, the fourth Larry Bird, and the fifth best Bill Russell. Kobe Bryant is no doubt good, but no where close to the best basketball player ever.Kobe Bryant is the best basketball player to ever play the game. The only other argument would be the likes of Michael Jordan. But even his Airness never scored 81 points in one game. Or 225 points in just 4 games. 65, 50, 60, and 50.Including games of:30 points in one quarter.62 points in 3 quarters.55 points in 2 quarters.9 straight 40+ point gamesIn 2005-2006 he scored 62 points in only 3 quarters. At the end of 3 quarters. Kobe Bryant had single handedly outscored the opposing Dallas Mavericks 62 to 61.He will go down as the greatest scorer ever.I believe he will go down as the best Basketball player who ever lived, before I erased this the lost person who posted on this said "He is a Ball Hog" IS THAT THE ONLY EXCUSE YOU HAVE NOW?! For the past 2 years, he grew up, and he has been a assister. They're even thinking about changing his name from "The Black Mamba" to something I can't remember, saw it in today's game.The Article Below Was Taken Out of a Sports Enthusiasts WritingWhen I first heard Mark Jackson say this on an ABC halftime show during the 2005-2006 season, I nearly fell out of my chair in shock. How could a veteran like Jackson, who had played during the great Michael Jordan's heyday and had grew up watching guys like Magic and Bird, say that the often-criticized Kobe Bryant, would go down as the greatest player to ever live? ESPECIALLY since he had just come off of 2 sub-par seasons, and still had yet to prove he could win without Shaquille O'Neal and was still shaking off the dark cloud that was the Colorado rape case. At the time, I simply thought Jackson was nuts, and should have been fired from ABC. Now, it is 2008, over two seasons since Jackson made that comment, and slowly but surely I am starting to believe he may have been on to somethig.What has caused my change of mind?Maybe it's the realization that in the eight seasons with Shaquille O'Neal by his side ,he won three NBA championships, earned five All-Defense team selections, six All-NBA team selections, six All-Star Game selections, one All-Star Game MVP trophy, and finished top five in MVP voting three times, despite having arguably the greatest center in NBA history playing the best ball of his career by his side.Not to mention his impressive playoff averages during the 3-peat: 25.3PPG/5.7RPG/4.9APG. What the stats don't show, is that on top of all the scoring, passing, and defending he did, his most important contribution to the Lakers during their championship years from 2000-2002 was his ability to take over in the clutch and hit game winning shots.Due to O'Neal's inability to hit free throws at a consistent rate, and problems with foul trouble, Kobe was greatly looked upon to hit the big shots down the stretch of those tough playoff games. His most notable clutch performance in the post season was his performance against the Indiana Pacers in game 4 of the 2000 Finals when he went 4-4 in OT, including the game winning basket.For a guy who was only 25 by the time he had accomplished all of that, what he did in his time with Shaquille O'Neal was incredible.Maybe it was his record breaking 2005-2006 season, when he averaged 35.4PPG/5.3RPG/4.5APG/1.8SPG, including outscoring the Dallas Mavericks through three quarters by himself (62-61) on 12/20/05, and his infamous 81pt game against the Toronto Raptors on 1/22/06. He shot 28-46 from the field during that game, 7-13 from behind the arc, and 18-20 from the free throw line.His 35.4PPG average that season put him at ninth all-time for highest points per game average for a single season. He broke many other scoring records that season. His four consecutive games of scoring 45 points or more, marked the first time that had occurred since 1964. His 43.4PPG average in January 2006 is eighth highest in NBA history, and he set a franchise record for most 40pt games in a single season (27) as well as most points scored for a season (2,832).Not only were his individual stats impressive, but also he led a very young and untalented team to a 45-37 record, which put the Lakers in the seventh seed in a very tough Western Conference. Kobe was elected to his eighth straight All-Star Game, and received both All-Defense First Team and All-NBA First Team honors. By the middle of the 2005-2006 season he began to be recognized as the consensus best player in the NBA.Maybe it was the 2006 playoffs, when he showed he could adjust his game to his team's needs as they nearly pulled off one of the NBA's greatest upsets by losing to the Phoenix Suns in seven games. To beat the Suns, it was essential that the Lakers exposed the major size advantages and flaws in the Suns' defense. To achieve that, Bryant had to play team ball and let his teammates expose those miss-matches.He willingly did just that, and they slowed down the Suns' offense enough to make the game be played at the Lakers' pace, in which the Lakers picked the Suns apart. In game No. 4, with the Lakers up 2-1 in the series, the Lakers were down by two with 7.9 seconds to go when Smush Parker stole the ball from Steve Nash, and gave it to Bryant, who tied the game with 0.7 seconds to go on a very tough lay-up to send the game to overtime.In overtime, the Lakers once again had their backs against the wall, being down by one with 6.1 seconds to go, but with a tie up between Nash and Luke Walton, and some help from the refs, Walton and Nash met at half court for a jump ball.Walton easily won the jump ball, which found its way to Bryant. He raced up the court and buried a fade away over two Suns' defenders at the buzzer to win the game. Unfortunately for Bryant, the Lakers would lose the next three straight games.Despite an incredible 50pts/8reb/5ast from Bryant in game six, it was a crushing loss.Maybe it was his 2006-2007 season, in which Bryant averaged 31.6PPG/5.7RPG/5.3APG. Bryant once again made history this season with his scoring exploits. For the season, he tallied 10 50pt games, which makes him the only player not named Wilt Chamberlain to do so in a single season.That was not the only record that he set that only he and Wilt would share. Between March 16-23, Bryant scored 50+ points for four consecutive games (65, 50, 60, 50). That same month, he averaged 40.4PPG, marking the third time in his career that he had averaged over 40PPG in an entire month.For the second straight year, Bryant earned All-Defense First Team honors as well as All-NBA First Team honors. He was also elected to his ninth straight All-Star game, and won MVP honors with his 31pts/6reb/5ast/4stl game. Bryant would once again lead his team to the playoffs, but would be bounced in five games to an improved Suns team.Maybe it was his summer of 2007. As the media and fans alike blasted him for his trade requests, Bryant tuned it all out and focused solely on getting in the best shape of his career, as he was set to represent his country and play for Team USA in the FIBA America's Tournament.Much like virtually every off-season for Bryant, he worked extremely hard and lost 20lbs in preparation for the tournament. In the White vs. Blue Team USA scrimmage, Bryant took over down the stretch of the game and upstaged Lebron James in the clutch, hitting a fade away over Tayshaun Prince to put his team in the lead, and then making the defensive stop on James to seal the victory.Right before the tournament, he took it upon himself to ask Coach Mike Kryzewski to put him on the best offensive player on each team, showing his willingness to return to the lockdown defender he was earlier in his career. During the tournament, he did just that; he locked down virtually everyone he guarded, as well as averaging 15.3PPG/2.0RPG/2.9RPG, and shooting 54.8% from the field (45.9% from 3). All of this helped lead Team USA to arguably its most dominating international performance since the Dream Team's domination of the 1992 Olympics.Maybe it is how he has conducted himself so far in the 2007-2008 season. To start off the season he conformed to playing team ball with the emergence of young guys like Andrew Bynum and Jordan Farmar, as well as the comfort of having a veteran like Derek Fisher by his side. As a clearly matured player with supreme confidence in his teammates, along with an effort on the defensive end that carried over from his stint on Team USA, Bryant led the Lakers to a 25-11 record with averages of 27.0PPG/5.9RPG/4.9APG.With everything going so well, rising star Andrew Bynum went down with an injury on January 13th. With things looking bleak, Bryant would lead the Lakers to a 5-5 record over the next 10 games, with averages of 33.6PPG/7.9RPG/5.6APG. Then a miracle happened: the Lakers stole Pau Gasol (as well as a second round draft pick) from the Memphis Grizzlies for Kwame Brown, Javaris Crittenton, Aaron McKie and a few draft picks.Gasol, a former All-Star, suddenly rejuvenated both Bryant and the Lakers, giving them hope that they could be a serious contender for an NBA title. Since the trade, the Lakers have a 14-3 record, and are currently only .5 games back from No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. Bryant was elected to his 10th straight All-Star Game, and the majority currently concedes that he is in prime position to win his first regular season MVP.Maybe it is the fact that, on top of his brilliant 11 year career, he is still only 29 years old, and with the way he keeps up his body and how refined his style of play is, he still has at least another five years or so of being a dominant player in this league, barring any major injury.He possibly has even more than five years. With his pace, he will surpass Kareem Abdul Jabaar and become the NBA's all-time scoring leader. To go along with another few years of dominance, Bryant also has a terrific opportunity to win more championships and a few MVP trophies due to the incredibly talented and young team surrounding him.Finally, maybe it is simply the fact that over the last few seasons, Bryant has played at an all-around level not seen from a perimeter before or since Michael Jordan's rule. In my opinion, which is often bashed, I feel Kobe Bryant is the most TALENTED and SKILLED player to ever play in the NBA.No player in the history of the league has such a wide variety of weapons at his disposal as a scorer as Bryant. His incredible shooting ability from all ranges, his length, his athletic ability, his aggressiveness and relentlessness as a scorer, his wide variety of moves to get himself a good look (pull-up jumper, spin moves, fade away jumper, behind the back, between the legs, power moves to the rim, etc).It all points to, along with his gaudy scoring numbers the last few seasons, Bryant being the most dangerous and skilled scorer to ever play the game. As his efficiency continues to rise as a scorer with his maturity, he will eventually take over Jordan's spot as the greatest scorer of all time. On top of his incredible scoring ability, he is a terrific rebounder for a two guard, and is a very skilled and underrated passer and ball handler.Bryant also happens to be a terrific defensive player who can, and sometimes does, lockdown his counterpart no matter if they are a superstar or simply a role player. Bryant is also one of the greatest clutch players in NBA history, taking over countless games and hitting tons of game winning shots over his career.Not to mention Bryant has the rare trait of having the attitude to want to take your heart out and stomp on it each and every night, which is largely what makes him such a special player.Whatever the case may be, Kobe Bryant has made me a believer, and slowly but surely I am starting to believe that he may very well go down as the greatest player that has ever lived by the time he retires. With what he has already done, with what he is currently doing, and with what the future holds in store for #24, I firmly believe if he plays his cards right he can very well pass Jordan and be known as the greatest basketball player to ever play the game.As Lakers commentator Stu Lantz put it, "Be happy you're getting a chance to see #24 play, because there is going to be a LONG time go by before you see a player that has THIS amount of skills on the basketball floor."He will go down as the best basketball player EVER.
