I'm sure I am older than most here on CB....so....having said that, "schmaltzy" is good. There are so many people and their stories that we can learn from. No doubt many on here have "their stories", too. If anyone thinks that they have a "bad past" let me just tell you that it doesn't matter so much where you have been as where you are headed. I love all the Deep Blue segments and have learned something from all of them. I love sports of all kinds and have come to know the work and commitment that it takes, especially from these young people trying to juggle their time and academics as well. Few of them will go on to play at the next level but their experiences can give them tools to be great husbands or wives....and even more importantly, fathers or mothers. Go cougs!!!
