Many of you asked for the context of the quote I shared yesterday. It's one of my favorite parts of the book. Here it is:
"Caring is cool. Nonchalance is a cop-out. Pour your heart and soul into what you love. You don’t get unlimited chances. Try hard. Give your all. Give a damn.
When you hold yourself back because you fear failure or looking ‘uncool,’ you sacrifice growth and potential (and mastery and fulfillment and richness and love and all the other good stuff in life) for short-term safety and comfort. It’s a trap. Get over it.
Fear and insecurity are part of human nature. You can either go through the motions and be superficially cool (but actually boring). Or you can step into the arena, lay it on the line, care deeply, make yourself vulnerable, and fully live your one and only life.
The world doesn’t need more mediocrity or going through the motions. The world needs more people putting themselves out there and giving it their all. The world needs more people who have the guts to care.
The best athletes care deeply.
The best artists care deeply.
The best leaders care deeply.
The best coaches care deeply.
The best teachers care deeply.
The best doctors care deeply.
The best writers care deeply.
The best scientists care deeply.
The best parents care deeply.
Caring deeply is the cost of admission to a big and textured life.
Try hard and give a damn."

If you find this sort of thing resonant, you'll love the book: https://t.co/DXJIiW7ek1
"Die Hard Night is coming up at the stadium. Free admission to anyone who was actually alive the last time we won the pennant."

According to Ron Darling...."Imanaga has been getting that pitch in on the right handers, but he left that one out over the middle of the plate to Contreras."
Whatever you do, don't admit that anyone in a Brewers uniform is good - typical national media "experts"
With second semester starting, track season is just around the corner! A new website is now published where you can find a ton of records going back 30 years for the boys teams (1991-2023) and nearly 50 years for the girls teams (1976-2023). More to come!
