I just finished reading "The Junction Boys".
It was pretty good, but what I thought was the best part was the quote on the last page. It was by Paul "Bear" Bryant:
“Today is the beginning of a new day, God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. What I do today is very important. Leaving something in its place I have traded for it. I want it to be a gain, not loss, good not evil, success not failure, in order that I should not forget the price I paid for it."
Maybe MM should hang that in the locker room somewhere.
