Our speaker this day was Boise State's men's
tennis coach, Greg Patton. My gosh what a wonderful inspirational speaker
and story teller he is.
From
Coach Patton: "A man dies and is approached by an angel. The
angel asks him what he would like in the afterlife. The man replies
that the wants to play golf every day and shoot scratch golf, he says he wants
to win the lottery every week, he wants to look young all the time and be in
perfect shape, and have all the women he wants. The angel grants these
wishes. As time goes by, the man becomes bored, he asks the angel,
'I'm bored, I think I want to go to Hell.' The angel replies, Sir, you
are in Hell!"
Coach Patton's point was
that we all need to be challenged. Excellent!
Coach Patton's favorite
film is Moneyball with Brad Pitt as the Oakland A's Billy Bean. "In
that movie, Billy Bean puts together a winning team without much money, I
go through the same thing trying to recruit tennis players, usually the Pac 10
gets all the top players."
