If you were the average ham, Hans......

"Average" and "contesting" are incompatible concepts.

"Nothing average ever stood as a monument to progress. When
progress is looking for a partner it doesn't turn to those who
believe that they are only average. It turns instead to those who
are forever searching and striving to become the best they
possibly can. If we seek the average level, we cannot hope to
achieve a higher level of success. Our only hope is to avoid
being a failure."
