Here, we discuss the teams we love to love, the Little League ‘Padres’, the Juggernaut, the Louisville Huggers, as well as the complicated science of scoring a cross country meet and the strategy of talking smack in German. What the great teams, military units, companies, and neighborhoods have in common - that we are all in this life together.
