Open Drawers: Basketball Goodbye

Basketball Goodbye

I said goodbye to one of my basketball playing friends this morning. Robert Prince gets a special acknowledgment because he was the assistant wide receivers coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was hired a couple weeks ago as the new wide receivers coach for the Seattle Seahawks. He worked with Jim Mora, Jr. in Atlanta and San Francisco. Plus he brought a lot of his Jaguars shirts to let us have. I acquired a nice black, dry fit "Polo" style shirt.

Quotes

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again." Terence Mann, Field of Dreams, 1989
"Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies." Andy Dufresne, The Shawshank Redemption, 1994
"No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try." Yoda, Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, 1980
"Temper gets people into trouble. Pride keeps them there." Defining Moments by Dan Schaeffer (p. 52)
"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always gotten." Author Unknown
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear." Ambrose Redmoon
Accountability promotes integrity. The Fine Line by Kary Oberbrunner
That's what life is about: exercising faith and being in a dynamic relationship - not in a static religion. The Fine Line by Kary Oberbrunner
When we exercise our spiritual gifts in the service of others, we find purpose; when we make ourselves accountable to a group of people who care about us, we discover community; and when we encourage other believers in the midst of their personal battles, we bump up against transcendence. The Fine Line by Kary Oberbrunner
What we do reveals what we believe, and what we believe is revealed by what we do. We're not saved by works, but our works prove that we're saved. The Fine Line by Kary Oberbrunner
