Batting for the Underdog

People that bat for the underdog are usually the underdogs in their own lives…only difference is, the courage they lack in fighting their own battles is what they muster up to fight for the underdog in other spheres of their lives. They do this in the hope that it will replace the lost self-worth resulting from their cowardice in situations where they lack the courage to be decisive in their own lives because it’s easier to comply than to resist authority under the guise of maintaining the peace.
