This is a great example of what so many people miss about the sport of baseball. Beyond the slow moving strategies and game action is a level of silly, honest and fun friendships that exist on the field, in the stands and wherever you are. The game provides its fans not only an activity, but the opportunity to really spend time investing in each other.
I wish I was in a group like this!

“I told them that we want to play an aggressive style of basketball, Rupp said. I said I want to go back to the pioneer spirit of our forefathers. I said the pilgrims who landed on Plymouth Rock didn’t look for security. I said what security did Daniel Boone ask for when he penetrated the wilderness, and what security did our pioneer mothers and fathers have, when they carved their homes out of the Western Plains. All they wanted was opportunity, and I said that’s all I can offer you folks!
And I said now boys, let’s not look for security, let’s look for opportunity, and I said if we keep that philosophy in mind the rest of our lives in whatever we do, you’ll all become great someday. I want perfect harmony, I want perfect execution of play and I want perfect attention to details. And I said if I can get that, I said we’ll have a great team.” ~ Adolph Rupp
Focus on that word: opportunity.

And just for the good measure, the original was very inspirational I’m sure.
