I attended the men's soccer team vs. faculty basketball game this evening and realized something: many people have a bad impression of the guy's soccer team. A comment was made concerning which team I was rooting for......the soccer team of course....if anything, I have blood on that team. A few comments were made concerning the guys on the team. During the course of the game, I talked to my good friend Adam Jones about the guys on the team and just how impressed I've been with a lot of them. This year's freshmen group has really surprised and impressed me. Ya, I know, I'm a little partial cause my brother's on the team but aside from that....there are some quality guys on that team. In fact, I think some of the best guys at IWU are on that team. It saddens me to hear people comment about some of the guys without even getting to know them. It's a reminder to me to be careful not to judge others. I too didn't really like the team the last few years, but I didn't know them.....I judged by what I saw and ASSUMED....that's the key word there.....people know a few or hear about it from others and generalize. Bad idea people. So here's my challenge....get to know a soccer player near you.....they're good guys...most...you'll always run into people you don't completely mesh with or like but I can guarantee you that you'll find a lot of them to be great, Christian guys.
