Off topic, but I wanted to share something with you guys. 43 years ago, the entire Marshall University football team and most of their coaching staff died in a plane crash. Most of us have seen the movie, We Are Marshall, or heard about it through the years. Today, I had the opportunity to attend the Memorial Ceremony that has taken place EVERY year on the day of the crash. It was an amazing site to see siblings and parents of the players, and sons and daughters of the coaching staff and administration at the ceremony today. I have a lot of respect for Marshall after all that they went through. "From the Ashes We Rose" Just a very neat experience that they continue to observe every year on the anniversary of a tragic event in the schools history. Very impressed that they keep the memory alive when we seem to push tradition aside these days.
