An Exerpt From the LROB

I read this exerpt in the LROB and as a brother and member of Standards Board, I felt it my duty to share this awsomeness with you all.

Longtime motivator and football coaching legend Lou Holtz often tells his players there are three universal questions that will be asked of them by everyone they encounter.

1. Can I trust you?
2. Are you committed to excellence?
3. Do you care about me?

To meet these expectations, coach Holtz lives by three simple rules, and he coaches his players to to the same.

1. Follow the "Do-Right-Rule." You know the difference between right and wrong. Do what is right and people will never have a reason not to trust you.
2. Commit to excellence by doing the best you can every time.
3. The Golden Rule. Treat others the same way you want to be treated.

wow, I thought, so simple but so true. The LROB is amazing. I thought that this was also a potential lense to view recruitment. Everybody should join the blog. It's bloggin' awesome. Also, boyles comment was quite acute even though he is very isosolese.

Run to Bozeman, the Beginning

We've been called psychotic, brave, crazy, determined and adventurous. Not many people are used to the idea that 34 guys would voluntarily run 201 miles in the middle of November. If you knew the background of Watson Children's Shelter though, it wouldn't be that surprising. We are truly privileged to have an opportunity to support this great cause.

A little after 9:15 this morning, the first shift of men left the house. Everyone's excited and anxious. I know I'm really nervous for my first shift this afternoon, I haven't been training near as much as I should have. I'm excited to hear how the first leg went when they get back.
