Other Things I've Learned From Sports

When California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced his intentions to run for Term 2, he did so by saying that everything he's learned in life, he's learned from sports. He said that "follow through" was important, so that he was going to follow through and serve another term. That got me thinking, besides follow through, what other lessons in life has sports taught us?

From football, I've learned that if you're thirsty, you can always milk the clock. If you get an assignment at work that you don't like, you can hand it off or pass it to somebody else. Football has taught me that a week can make a tremendous difference. If you hear footsteps, pay attention to what you're doing even if it means somebody is about to hit you hard.

Baseball has taught me that it's not good to get caught napping or stealing. Doing the little things are what will get you noticed. Always take the easy out. If you need mustard, look for something near you that's traveling fast.

I've also learned many things from basketball. Dancing is something that we're supposed to do in March. Shooting the lights out is a good thing. Ten seconds is like an eternity. Getting taken to school is a bad thing, but schooling somebody is a good thing. Also, you should shop at Sears a lot, because you want to have as many tools as possible.

Finaly, be aware that if you hear a fat lady singing, whatever you're doing is about over.
