One of the reasons we all do this is the journey, not just the destination.

Until or if the lucky few of us get to the D1 level we are neither going to get rich or famous.
However we all love being in the best seat in the house on a friday night in a packed jym; or in a MS gym w/ six screaming parents on a saturday morning. The bottom line is we must love what we do or what we get out of it or we would not do it. If you don't get that feeling than you should probably not be working. It is not only a personal test for us to see what the highest level of competition it is that we can get to but for me at least the internal satisfaction of watching kids mature as well as gaining more and more fortitude when dealing w/ adveerse situations. (who doesn't get a high when perfectly dealing w/ an assanine coach or settling down an upset player and watching them later excell) Maybe I am getting way too sentimental but some of the last few comments really made me realize why I love wearing stripes so much and what it actually does to make me a better and stronger person!!! Not to mention the dream of working the big time is one hell of a strong motivator!!!
