Sucking it up for the team....

Sometimes you just have to "suck one up for the team". Humanity -- life -- a friend -- an enemy -- a football game -- a charity you work for -- someone you love -- someone you lost....What I mean is, swallow your pride or your anger or your hurt and just say you're sorry. You know that lump in your throat? The one that makes you just -- miserable. Nervous...whatever? Well, suck it up for the team. Mean it. You'll feel better. You'll get past it -- I promise. One day, the good "games" will outweigh the L on your scorecard. Your team is worth it. Teams make mistakes and sometimes you lose a game or two. But jeez you played! Its so great to be you.

Remember: Its not whether you win or lose....its having someone to walk you home after the game....
