8 0

The Germans were also furious about the various terms of the Treaty. They hated clause 231 – the ‘War Guilt’ clause – which stated that Germany had caused ‘all the loss and damage’ of the war. Firstly, the Germans did not think that they had caused the war (for the Germans, the war was a war of self-defence against Russia, which had mobilised 31 July 1914). During the 1920s, the Germans published all their secret documents from 1914, to prove they had tried to stop the war. Secondly, the Germans hated clause 231 because accepting it gave the Allies the moral right to punish Germany – it validated all the harsh terms of the Treaty.

identity. An emerging consensus—that multiple ethnic identities should be contained within a

greater single civic/creedal identity—highlighted an enduring tension between two ready

components in sports: gamesmanship (the tribal reality of winning, mostly through

professionalism) and sportsmanship (the rule-of-law ideal of playing well, ideally through

amateurism). American football’s unique provenance as a highly commercial and physical

game within higher education’s ideals of intellectual and noncommercial educational

excellence, offers a unique study of the power of gamesmanship to shape sportsmanship while
