Just one more thing...

I feel compelled to post this. In my character and ethics in education class, this guy and I had to write a version of an Aesop's fable. This is what we wrote:

The Lion and the Bear

In the jungle, all of the animals lived by the rule that whoever held the golden crown would be king of the jungle. In this jungle, a lion owned the crown, and so he was called the king. The lion would go around to all of the other animals, boasting of his power and prestige and displaying the golden crown for all to see. Other animals warned the lion of the dangers of losing the crown. "Ha!" the lion would reply, "I am not worried about that!" And so, he did not heed the animals' warnings and continued to believe that his power would go unchecked. But, one afternoon in late October, as the lion slept with the crown left next to him, a bear approached the lion and in one swift motion, swooped in and grabbed the crown. When the lion awoke, he found his crown - and power - gone.

Moral of the story: Overconfidence can be your greatest vulnerability - and so can a 3-0 lead in the ALCS.

Quick joke (no credit here): What do you call a party of 25 who gather to watch the World Series?

The Yankees.

Hahahah. This will never, ever get old.
