Hey guys.. WELL DONE FOR NJCC! It was really a great experience watching everyone row AND cheer their hearts out for each other. And definitely, I think, we have really gelled together as a team over the past year. Keep it up, guys! And work hard in the coming months!
Here's another quote from the movie Eugene posted before.
***************************
(The team won the Pantheon Cup and the coach is talking to his star player, Beamen, after the match)
Coach: Well, glad to see success hasn’t gone to your head too much, kid..
Coach: It’s your moment, really. Savour it. But never forget, on any given Sunday, you’re either gonna win or you’re gonna lose…
Beamen: But can you win or lose like a man. I got it, coach.
Coach: You know, there was this great quarterback in the 70s that I knew and this guy was one tough son of a b***h. He fought for every inch he ever got. I mean, he didn’t have your natural skills, but he could make it happen. He could win. Anyway, I ran into this guy a few weeks ago in LA and we got a few beers and started talking.
Coach: You know what he told me?
Coach: He said when he looked back, he didn’t really miss the Pantheon Cups, or the girls, or even the glory. You know what he missed..? What he missed were those other guys looking back at him in awe. Those 11 guys, every one of them seeing things the same way, all looking down for you, together. That’s what he missed..
***************************
So guys, continue to support each other with everything you've got, because I know it's something I will never forget in the years to come, and I believe that I can say the same for the rest of you.
Well done, once again. :D
