I feel very strongly about having my sons play team sports. There are so many important life lessons to be learned on the soccer pitch, on the baseball diamond, on the basketball court, on the futsal court: integrity, hard work, teamwork, cooperation, humility, diligence, they are all virtues I'd like to encourage. And sometimes they are best encouraged by a coach and another group of boys. This interview with Troy Polamalu is so lovely. Who hears any professional athletes talking about the battle against pride these days? My prayer that my sons feel this way about their sports experiences.
