Curious to see who doesn't reply to such threads.

Seems a positive piece all could enjoy.

Sometimes you own the libs. Sometimes, the libs own you.


Lol, I enjoyed the girl's dry commentary, but why was she accusing him of sass?

Kid sounds like half gospel preacher, half motivational speaker. Quite hard to stomach.

It's not personal. It's just war.

Hard to stomach? Odd reaction. He just won a come from behind game & is being interviewed ( and doing so quite well, I must add ) by a local news chick.

Be happy, dammit.

They think footballers are akin to gladiators, wearing all that safety equipment - Brits would just prefer everybody get permanently injured, get British teeth, or play footsy with those soccer balls.


Got a transcript of that vid?

Are you video incapable ?

“At first, we started slow, we started real slow,” he said before kicking into overdrive.

“You know, that’s alright, that’s okay, because sometimes in life you’re going to start slow… but we’re always, always going to finish fast,” professed Hester. “No matter what the score was, we’re going to finish hard.

“They had us the first half, I’m not gonna lie… but it took guts, it took an attitude. That’s all it takes, that’s all it takes to be successful, is an attitude,” Hester shouted as the grin on his face grew and the light in his eyes shined brighter.

“It’s an awesome feeling, when you truly believe that you’re going to be successful regardless of the situation, regardless of the scoreboard, you’re going to be successful.

“If you still lose the game… win or lose, we realized that we were gonna be alright. And it was gonna be okay, and were were gonna keep smiling.”






But the true magic of this clip is hearing the passion and enthusiasm in the young man's voice. Transcript really doesn't do it justice.

I think the last line really sums it up best.

yeah. Musical computers leave me with sporadic abilities based on which terminal I'm at, which software or other virus is loaded, and filters.

He goes on for a bit, but I think that's the gist of the interview. if ya find a solid computer and connection, take some time. Or scan espn for the next day or two. Might get lucky and see it there.
