    Did anyone see the ESPY awards on Wednesday night? There was a very nice tribute to Tennessee coach Pat Summitt.

    Also, congrats to Baylor University --

    I started to watch but then couldn't stand the MC. Glad they honored Pat Summitt.

    As a "Tennessee Transplant" (Born in PA, 1946; left PA for TN, 1972--been in TN ever since ['Yankee by birth, Southerner by choice']), I can say enough good about Pat Summitt.

    Don't know about her spiritual condition of course, but, humanly speaking, she is an inspiration to any sports player or fan (of which I personally am neither).

    Understand that Baylor's three ESPY awards ties a college record. Not bad a for a relatively small Baptist university. :thumbs:
