pot-hunting
the activity in the sport of rowing where-by a crew, athlete or club selects the events in which they compete on the basis of how likely they are to win. so-called because of the peuter or gl-ss pots (drinking vessels) which are traditionally presented to the winners of rowing events.
it allows compet-tors to achieve the ‘success’ of a win by mearly finding an event of low enough standard for them to win be able to win. this effectively under-mines the notion that “to win, one must train hard and achieve a high standard”. for this reason the practice of pot-hunting is generally looked-down upon by the rowing community, where hard-work, dedication and selflessness are valued attributes.
in everyday life it would be akin to only making s-xual approaches to ugly or sl-tty girls/boys, so as to be sure of success.
adam, the only reason you want to enter york (poor quality regatta in north-east u.k.) is because you’re pot-hunting!!!
