Rational actors responding to incentives provided by the system. Free market at work. What's the problem?
The problem is the total and complete lack of pride in ones self, and the confidence that you can beat hte #1 seed.
Coaches are both losers in my opinion. Teaching the kids nothing about life and what it really takes to succeed.

Totally disagree. Understanding and being realistic about your competition is probably more important than telling yourself "I can win at ANYTHING". No, you can't. Maybe it's smart to develop the skill to rise to vice president when you know you are never going to beat out that president.
Repeat: they were presented with incentives and responded rationally to them. Kudos.
