Doing a good job is something worth smiling about. Behind any good performance is a lot of practicing. Spirit, that’s a powerful word. There are many different kinds of spirit. In our school the most popular spirit is yelling as loudly as possible and seeing who can lose his voice first. That kind of spirit is great for the cheerleaders because that is their main purpose. But sometimes the players appreciate a little more of the kind of spirit that makes a person tell ’em they played a good game after a 100-0 loss, or the kind that makes a person sit very still and pray while they’re trying to concen- trate. Sometimes I think they even appre- ciate the emotional spirit where every- body cries and hugs each other after a big win.” 5
