Never imagined it would be for this, but still pretty cool!

I Will Not Let You Down
Was blown away by Bill Curry's speech to his team before Georgia State's first ever football game. He let ESPN tape it and it was played on Mike and Mike on ESPN Radio that I listen to almost every morning.
Coach Curry asks his players what they’re going to say to their teammates in the fourth quarter when they’re tired and feel like quitting. The young men respond in unison “I will not let you down!” He asks what they’re going to say when their teammates wanna give up, “I will not let you down!” and are hurt, “I will not let you down!” can’t carry their own weight, “I will not let you down!” etc. ... “I will not let you down!”
It was so moving in general and also brought me back to my days playing high school football. I also love him because he played for the Packers under Lombardi and coached Georgia Tech, so lots of connections there. It also made me wonder what the world would look like off the field if we looked at each other more often and said, “I will not let you down!”
Well not sure what speech he'll give before playing #1 Alabama later this year, but I'll be cheering for him!

IMAX Hubble 3D
Saw this last week and it was amazing! A shuttle launch in 3D on an IMAX screen with a surround sound system was awesome. Great story of one of the best science projects ever! This has a special place for me as I've always loved space, it was even my little boy dream to be an astronaut. If you want to see it you can go to the official site and see where it's playing near you.
