This is the Stattmann Baby!! Time to Scatt a little bit.
Follow me here.
The major sports stories are what?
The Boston Red Sox winning as a team.
The New England Patriots winning as a team.
The NHL losing as a collective of teams.
And, the NBA wondering whether or not Kobe can fit his considerable skills into a team.
Hear a pattern?
It’s about team! The collective over the personal. Us versus me.
Of course, the biggest headline in motorsports is the Hendrick Motorsports Tragedy. And what’s that got to do with team? Listen to how Jeff Gordon put it Friday:
“I’ve never been so inspired and driven in my life. I can’t think of anything that can drive us harder and stronger than this loss.”
Watch the Hendrick team and learn how the human spirit can soar like an eagle; how it can run and not be weary and walk and not faint.
Whether or not the Hendrick team wins another race this year, we wish them nothing but Peace.
