| Sports Science and Medicine: outcome |
The result or consequence of a performance in terms of success and failure. The outcome may be absolute, as with a team winning by scoring more goals than opponents, or dependent on the perception of particular individuals (see perceived importance).
| Devil's Dictionary: outcome |
n.
A particular type of disappointment. By the kind of intelligence that sees in an exception a proof of the rule the wisdom of an act is judged by the outcome, the result. This is immortal nonsense; the wisdom of an act is to be juded by the light that the doer had when he performed it.
