Отрывок из книги

On August 30th, 2010, my dear Godmother, cousin, and wonderful friend got her “angel wings” and joined God in heaven. Katie McBrien was overcome by a massive heart attack way too early in life at age 62. She loved everybody and everybody loved her. I dedicate this book and this vision of Spirit & Sport to her, my brother TR, my Dad and Mom, also Lou and Robert Iacarella. May they all rest in peace and still be there to prod God to keep sending investors and people of good will for this vision and book. I love you all.

First, to Mike, Karen, Kathy (Sam), and Kevin thank you for your feedback and willingness to help

Love wasn’t always evident in the Scott household. In fact, sibling rivalry and thinking up ways to “get someone’s goat” as the saying goes was one of our favorite pastimes. Casey, my brother who was closest in age, was often ill during his youth, and he fought Crohn’s disease in his teens. We were all very protective of him.

My dad traveled often with his job, as a sales manager for Union 76, and Robb, the eldest at home, often took on the role of “dad”. One night, as we were all gathering at the dinner table, I took Casey aside and whispered that we should pull a prank on Robb with a fake punch. We’d seen enough action movies to know how to pull off a good one. My mother overheard our plan and warned me not to, but that only convinced me that it was going to be a great prank. Casey and I started up an “argument” in the kitchen—fully aware that Robb was already seated at the dinner table, and he could hear everything we were saying.
