Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I knew there was a reason I always like the Bucks under
Woody Hayes. Our family always devotedly rooted for the ol' scarlet and grey
(and our neighbours 3 doors down always had "Go Blue" signs all over the
place, so a friendly rivalry grew up between our two families!).

Hey, you don't think I could root for my own college team here, do you? The
Kent State University Golden Flashes? Are you kidding? A team that's barely
won a game in...........how long? (Well, except for men's and women's
basketball, now THAT'S another story!)

I'm glad that Woody Hayes instilled those values in his players, who, I
hope, passed that mentality along to others. May we all learn the lessons of
"Pay It Forward" and endeavour to make our Society and our world a better
place in which to live.

I hope I'm not too much of an idealist for thinking this way.
