    The old saying goes "There's no suck thing as luck; only preparation & opportunity." Similar to what you have said here. Nice post.

    Could not agree more. It's what you did with the "missed air ball game-tying free throw" moment that helped define you and your "lucky" ...... mindset

    True enough. I never gave it much thought other than a chuckle. It was an
    away game, so their fans really had fun with it!

    Luck is 99% perspiration and 1% chance.

    I like this. It is kinda similar to my theory that when people say they don't like something ("I don't like playing basketball"), it really means they aren't good at it. People don't like things they aren't good at.

    So true. I used to not like dancing for that very reason. But now, I love
    it. No....I still suck at it, it's just that now I 1) don't care and 2)
    drink bourbon.
