COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS–‘PIGSKINS IN DRESSES’–PART 2

PIGSKINS IN DRESSES-PART 2

Welcome back. If you have not read my story “College Football Playoff—Why Are They Putting Pigskins in Dresses?” I encourage you to do so before you proceed with this story. You can find Part 1 in the College Sports Section in Football.

After Saturday’s Conference Championship Games, I sensed the sigh of relief from the College Football Selection Committee, here in Henderson, NV. They dodged, as they did last year, having to put two teams from the same conference in their ‘Final Four’.

For recap sake, let me break down each Conference Championship Game and the impact on the selection process. For those of you who missed the Iowa vs. Michigan State Game, it was a ‘Classic Duel of Two Titans’. More on that game later.

Game One—PAC 12 Championship—USC vs. Stanford5457094e-a372-4886-8b31-03d480d1473f_26991_CUSTOM

This game for the ‘Conference of Champions’ had very little impact on the selection process. It was also reflected in the crowd or the lack of a crowd. The players appeared to be vested and wanting to win, by the intensity of their play.image.vam.synacor.com.edgesuite.net

WELLNESS–“TAKE 5” GAME-PLAN FOR LIFE/SPORTS–LESSON #1–INTRO

“TAKE 5” GAME-PLAN FOR LIFE/SPORTS–Lesson #1–INTRO

Welcome, if you have not read the previous post, “TAKE 5” Game-Plan for Life/Sports—The Playbook, I encourage you to do so, before you read the following. You can find the post in The “TAKE 5” Game-Plan for Life section.

Starting this first Friday of December 2015 and continuing the first Friday of each new month, I will be presenting a new lesson that explores the “TAKE 5” Game-Plan for Life/Sports Playbook.

Twelve Lessons have been developed, with six or more in the pre-development phase. Each lesson is designed for a one-month interval between lessons. This gives the individual the digestion time necessary between lessons.

As in overeating, one might induce discomfort when attempting a different Game-Plan for Life/Sports. Since our “TAKE 5” Game-Plan is designed for life, let ‘IT’ unfold as time permits or at 30 days intervals.

The “TAKE 5” Game-Plan for Life/Sports has been designed after observing and analyzing the results that many of my students, grades 3-12, achieved while they practiced and committed themselves regularly to the principles and skills of our Game-Plan. Personally, I have been practicing these skills and principles most of my life.

The “TAKE 5” Game-Plan can be implemented  starting in teenager years through the end of the life cycle.

As you journey forward in designing your Wellness Plan and Philosophy of Life, remember the Gem ‘Knowing’ by Buddha. Observe and analyze over time. Then enjoy a ‘Knowing’.

To assist with Lesson #1, slides from our Power Point Presentation will be included:
