BP,

Re: did Confucius ever say, "Those who call their opponents vile names label themselves as being unable to engage others on the issues",

Apparently not:

Bridge Player - I am not a fan of Confucius, so I don't know that quote, but it is very similar to this by Lao Tzu: "One who excels in fighting is never roused in anger. One who excels in defeating his enemy does not join issue." BTW, I contend that Bridge players make better traders than poker players. Bridge and trading are both about assessing the odds, setting a target gain, limiting the risk, making the most of the opportunity offered you, guessing where the high cards are, and finessing the sandbaggers. - Mike
