I once asked a pathologist friend in Philadelphia, ‘Have you seen many brains?’

‘Hundreds of them,’ he said.

‘Have you ever seen one worn out?’

‘I’ve never seen one even slightly used,’ he answered.

You’re right, it is

Undergrad athletics at The Master’s College:

We believe the field of play is a mirror. It reflects and reveals the athlete and the college in ways others kinds of examination just can’t. How will you react when the game’s not going your way, when the critical call goes against you or when your teammate misses the winning shot? What about when the winning seems easy? It takes as much discipline to win with grace as it does to lose with honor.

We play to win at Master’s because committing to less dims the reflection we’re trying to see. We train hard because that honors the Lord, and because we know that training hard is what it takes to win. And let’s be honest, winning is always more fun.

Thanks for telling it like it is…

Great Seats to see Dirk Score 41

Last night my father-in-law took me to see the Mavs and Spurs. He got us some great seats, and we got to see a great game. 5 starters were missing (Parker, Ginobili – who went down in the 1st, Marion, Howard, Dampier), but it was hard to tell. Drew Gooden put up 17 points and 11 rebounds before fouling out (easy to do when you’re covering Duncan by yourself), and Dirk scored 21 in the fourth quarter and OT. I hope we get back for another game soon!
