Beginning Again

We HAD to go to the Pro Football Hall of Fame for several reasons: 1) it was 15 minutes away. 2) Dan is a big football fan 3). I grew up around football because my dad was a football coach. The experience surprised me. It made me realize how much football is wrapped up in our American culture. It has served as a distraction during hard times, it gives us something to rally around, it unites us and it gets our blood pumping. I was also reminded that sports in general serve to give us a crash course in character building, perseverance, determination, team building, grit and hard work. You take those lessons with you and they get you through everything else in life. Football raises a lot of boys into strong human beings.
