More than the Olympics. Still in the black

Brandon Workman made me feel a little better tonight but it ain’t over til its over and nothing but winning takes the black away. Though I am sure this is getting old for all of you:)

It was a school project by a gymnast and it is actually well done. It made me think of a few things.

Though I personally think spending thousands of dollars on a sport for the love of the game is a bit much to a parent paying the bills the point about people play sports for fun is a very good one.

I spent years playing soccer as well as a few other sports while I was never good enough to go pro but I still played. The difference is at least to me anyway the cost. At most I spent a couple hundred on a traveling soccer team and these girls are not even close to sniffing a College scholarship let alone the Olympics.

I don’t want it to seem like I am looking down on them because I am not. I can imagine being asked the same question over and over again would be quite annoying and they seemed to handle it albeit with eye rolling and not grace. Than again who am I to complain about attitude 🙂
