Spirit

I know some of you have issues with pro sports. I know I do. I know some of you also have issues with team sports. I know I do. That being said, I do think that sports can play a very positive part in our lives. This past year/season, I was lucky enough to be part of a great experiment, the Ligue Fédérale des As. I think the league found said it best by enouncing the following: "Il est certain que j'aurais pu faire ça plus simple, mais à quoi bon ?! Nous vivons dans un monde aseptisé, où l'ordinaire est la norme et où le confort et l'indifférence règnent. Je n'embarquerai pas sur mes grands chevaux, mais l'homme et la condition humaine me désappointent au plus haut point, et il me semble que si chacun d'entre nous se forçait un peu pour agir positivement sur son coin du monde, on pourrait arrêter de parler de l'utopie d'un paradis sur terre, car nous pourrions en récolter ses bienfaits de notre vivant." I felt compelled to share those words with you guys. I feel that although we can disagree on minutiae, we can agree on the essence of what was written. I must say that the dude is even more inspiring that his words are since he put them to action!
You can find me in the pic if you wish.
