Liberal Arts Blog– Saturday is Sports, Dance, Fitness, and All Points Physical Day
Today’s Subject: College Basketball– Cooper Flagg (Fight It Out) and “March Insanity”– who cares? that should? why?
Last time, an update on the NBA (National Basketball Organization), particularly, the race for the normal period MVP (most beneficial player) as well the teams with the very best probabilities of recording the NBA champion in June.
Two weeks earlier, the Super Dish.
The basic factor is that the even more things you understand about the much more points even more individuals care most about, the higher your possibility of a moment of shared pleasure with anybody you happen to meet anywhere, at any time.
In that spirit, we move this week from professional basketball to university basketball, where the greatest experience is Cooper Flagg, an 18 year old, 6 6 freshman at Duke that plays tiny forward and that, “came to be the very first ACC (Atlantic Coast Conference) player with 500 +. factors, 100 + aids, and 30 blocks in the routine season in the last 25 years.”
Today, a few notes on the March Chaos schedule, the favorites to win, and a little historical background on the winningest trains in university basketball background and the wisdom of the best of them all: John Wooden.
What do you learn about college basketball, men’s or women’s, that the remainder of us might not but would thrill to learn? Who was your biggest trainer ever before? What words of wisdom of their own still resemble in your mind?
Specialists– please chime in. Correct, sophisticated, illuminate.

THE BEST GUIDANCE FROM THE GREATEST COACH IN UNIVERSITY BASKETBALL BACKGROUND
1 He maintained a card with this creed in his budget for the rest of his life.
2 On the reverse side of the card were 2 teams of three: “Don’t whimper. Do not whine. Don’t make reasons.” and “Never exist. Rip off. Or Swipe.”
3 An additional treasure: “Discover as if you were to live forever; live as if you were to die tomorrow.”
NB: Two more: “Skill is God-given; be humble. Fame is man-given; be happy. Conceit is self-given; take care.” and “You can’t live an excellent day without flattering someone that will certainly never ever be able to repay you.”
