WhoTom Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 When I was a Cub Scout, one of the scout leaders took some of us to a Braves game. They were playing the Bucks (with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar) and we were sitting in the front row of the upper ring (orange seats). I made a big "Two for McAdoo!" sign and hung it from the railing. 2

WhoTom Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) This one has been attributed to numerous coaches, but the consensus is that Vince Lombardi was the first: "When you get to the end zone, act like you've been there before." I try to keep that in mind after any professional accomplishment. I mean, yeah, it's good to be proud of your work, but hey - that's what you get paid for. Edited July 11, 2020 by WhoTom 4

WhoTom Posted July 11, 2020 Posted July 11, 2020 Just now, dwight in philly said: i actually thought Marv said that first .. who knows Marv lifted a lot of quotes from other people. He was an English major, so it's not surprising that he's well-read, but he really should have cited his sources. ? 1 1
