2 things I took away from last night’s games. Roy Williams is a hell of a coach despite some talking heads’ & UNC fan’s contrarian viewpoint. And, if you didn’t hear or haven’t read Tony Bennett’s post game comments after UVA’s loss, you should search them out. They are worth reading to gather some perspective on humility in the face of defeat.
Meanwhile, back at Eastbound this fine drizzly morning, 5 pax fought the sack of farts to join me for a good old fashioned beatdown. No new fangled exercises, no running all over creation trying to tap a partner on the shoulder and giggle, just 3 solid sets and a lot of sweat.
