a couple of things about this [gif]:
1- JenLaw is the absolute greatest. Signed, all the clumsy girls of the world.
2- BCoop (rushing to her rescue) is a scholar and a gentleman. Heart. Throb.

a prayer for dean smith
You all have heard about it. That stretch of road that runs between Duke, Chapel Hill, and [my beloved] North Carolina State University. That great Tobacco Road signals which color is acceptable to wear to a Saturday kickoff in September, who you pledge your allegiance to during March Madness, and- in some cases- can divide a house, family, and marriage if only for a few hours during a full court press.
I bleed red. I always will. But as a die-hard sports fanatic, I also know that a good great coach makes a team. He molds and shapes the youth, the spectators, and ultimately the sport with every passionate play calls and triumphant fist pump. Dean Smith was all of that to college basketball- and yet so much more.
Smith has helped integrate and has helped innovate.
When faced with ignominious treatment, such as his ejection in the 1991 Final Four, he would not be denied the chance to show respect to others — shaking the hands of his victorious opponents as he excitedly did on the court in dignity.
Life is such a fleeting thing. The joy and happiness, as well as sorrow and sadness, are simply brief moments within a brief moment.
Let’s remember that. Through our team allegiance, our bitter disappointments [on the court and off], and our losing seasons- that in the midst of all of this is life. And if you’re as lucky as Coach Smith- a beautiful one at that.
