listened to Marvin Lewis speak several times in clinics and other coaching conventions. He has a sound concept of defense, and what it takes to be successful at the highest level. I also appreciate what he has done for the team I root for, as we were mired in a decade long of embarrassing seasons before his arrival.

in a full time academic career and you have the makings for a real disaster. How do we find a good balance in order to have the happy and satisfied life that we desire? There is a quote I heard once that says “No one can do everything, but everyone can do something”. I have always remembered that, I believe it was on television around the time hurricane Katrina hit.

In my life some things have really stunk, I felt like a total punk. When hope was out of sight, I had a brother who stepped in to fight. I could be in the dumps, really canned, he would always lend a helping hand. He could be really close or not, I could still call him on the spot.

I could be in any sort of jam some as thick
