keeping in mind whats important
i know guys that this has nothing to do with football, but as training camp begins please just take a moment to thank god for everything we have, and to keep in mind that there are people who are not as healthy as us who are in a struggle for their lives every single day of the year. The camp that i work in for kids with cancer recently went on a trip to New York City and we choreographed a dance for the campers and counselors at 8 pm in middle of times square in front of 15,000 people. This gave the children hope and inspiration in the fight for their lives for the rest of the year when they are not in camp, and even more so gave us the counselors inspiration knowing that if these sick children can do this, with hard work and dedication anything is possible. So for a few moments before we all jump into the new football season, give a quick prayer for all the sick children in the world who need a cure, and thank god for everything that we have. Thanks guys, Jojo

So there I was.....asleep when it happened.....the buzzing of the blackberry woke me up....still groggy, I rubbed my eyes, and read the incoming email.

Then I had a beer....took the day off work, and bought a box of condoms.

Those people are pathetic and sad and in the end its probably just best to feel sorry for
those sorts of people because they must be some really miserable human beings.
