My brother had always done so well. I always say he was the best in the state that one year, but it’s not true. Makes a better story. Instead he got a girl in his head. A two-toed girl. And she cheated. With his best friend and he didn’t make it to state. Game over.

Looking up on the shelf lining the perimeter of my room, seeing all those trophies glinting in the light should make me happy. Spending all this time working to get the best. The best? Those trophies are silly monuments of fake metal and plastic. How is that the best? I don’t feel satisfied, I just feel empty. Why did I waste so much of my time? What other great things could I have done in the meantime?
I looked in disgust at the trophy he brought back from his hunting excursion – a handsome deer head. I hated how he looked so pleased with himself. He must have saw my grimace for he seemed offended, even though he was in the wrong for killing such a beautiful animal for ‘sport’.
She was a trophy wife.
It wasn’t a bad position, really. She enjoyed it. Not much work went into that sort of thing, beyond what she already enjoyed; keeping herself beautiful, fresh, and looking young. You could say she was a bit of a gold-digger, but she wouldn’t take offense. It was the truth!

The girls basketball team won the shiny, gold,trophy at the tournament last summer. This year however, the other team won by three points. It was a close game.

When you do something very good a lot of times you will get a trophy for you efforts. Some sports give trophys as an result of being good at certain things.

It would be great to win a trophy in doing a sport that you love. I would like to bowl and play tennis. I also like to ice skate.

The trophy is the best one that I have ever seen. I love this one and it will always look good to see the bright gold trophy on the self. I think the trophy is the nicesed one there I feel that no one will ever get a better one then we got today.

Who wants a trophy? Many people have trophies. There are trophies for about anything you want them for.
Shelley Reynolds
Can a trophy make you feel good about yourself? Of course it can. It gives you a chance to think about your accomplishments something we may not always take the time to do. It shows that someone else recognizes your talent and that always makes a person feel good. It also a symbol that you are capable of success .
Janice
After a long journey, a long time, and a lot of work a person might win a trophy. It takes a lot of effort to win to be able to win a trophy.
A trophy for some people is the most important thing. They do not care about having fun or enjoying what they are doing. Just win.
Rebeca
Your main squeeze. Your first choice. THAT’S your trophy. What the hell am I?
Perhaps it was the fact that I was a flashy person, but having married a trophy wife, I was quite satisfied with myself until that gaff at the dinner party. She asked my boss how I did on a project that was a sample interview for our largest competitor.
Chelsa
The trophy of the game was big, shiny and gold. And boy, did she want it! It was standing there, just looking at her… Waiting for her to win it. Because it was inevitable that that was what she needed to do. No matter what the consequenses, she HAD to win that trophy
Caitlin
Golden siver glory of champions and idolers of all ages an memory of unspoken adrenaline and extacy strong enought ot take out a bull. Those are the memories that are in place in one so willing to take that stance upon bitter rivals and the crowds of boisterous people for the chance at only a minutes worth of fame and a soon to be rusted aluminum trophy.
Arkia
winning a prize, woooooo. got one, looked like an ashtray. dont want any more. dust collectors. over confident people put them on display. ummmmm….
Janika
A wife. Not mine but someone elses. She is beautiful but not for me. Of another world. One that I can’t touch and don’t walk in. I am a ghost in the machine and will live my life this way.

This is very neat. I would love to earn a trophy for sticking to my diet! This will either make me our break me. How many seconds did you say that I have?

I never won a trophy because i never played sports.
lorraine
I’ve won a few; some I would like to give back. It’s a good feeling to win, but sometimes losing is more instructive. It’s those times when you learn your true character.
Joe
i once won a trophy for running. it was the last place trophy for trying because no matter how hard i tried, i could never get out of last place. when i was a kid, i was in the worst shape ever. i would get the worst cramps and end up crying in so much pain whenever i would try to run. apparently joing the cross and field team was a bad decision for me. damn those out of reach trophies. damn them!
Courtney
I don’t want to be your trophy. I’m more than that. I think. I feel. I contribute. I make more money than you. I’m better than you. You suck. You’re mean. You’re sleeze. You chew with your mouth open. You’re getting fat. I’m leaving.
stupid anoying things that cause jealousy, bad behaviour and often some of the silliest theatrics of the human race. why on earth would someone wrap thier self worth in an object so abstract. I have no concept of why but maybe you do.
something that you achieve when you win something.. sometimes it can be painful when you don’t receive one because you’re an epic FAIL.. Lazy shit.
Trophy: Also can be a kind of candy that you chew on.
Esther
The person who mentioned this site on the English Companion ning deserves a trophy! If I could remember the person’s name, I would mention it here. Alas, I cannot, but I will try to make up for my shortcomings in memory by making good use of this site!

Jules
She worked very hard to reach her status. Botox, lifts, tucks, injections, you name it. Luckily a man 30 years her senior finally picked her up. His trophy. But just for the night. She was left with debt up to her pristine forehead.

trophy. accomplishment. although you can be very accomplished without a trophy. it seems that trophy is a childish, athletic award. otherwise it’s usually ‘medal,’ or ‘award,’ or ‘statue.’ although i don’t know too much about professional sports; maybe they call it a trophy.
Tyler
The trophy glittered brightly in front of them, reflecting their eager faces on its shiny surface. It meant so much to them, this tiny trophy. It symbolised all they had been through together. All their hardships. All their triumphs. All the laughs and all the tears.
There are many trophies in the UK. From trophies for achievement to trophies left by dogs that you unwittingly step in. Let’s face it, trophies are ultimately just another thing to boast about, a physical manifestation of what? Nothing worthwhile- just egotistical notions and upper-class bragging rights.
