I am writing this from a classroom in downtown Phoenix AZ where I am a team coach for an internal leadership development academy in my agency. This is important to this post because the
topics today are empathy and managing stress.
Do you want to know what my takeaways are so far?
First, I
have no empathy for fans of Virginia. Be better you sorry pieces of crap! Last
year in this space, I wrote a post titled “Virginia is a Dumpster Fire” where I
commented that the fact that Virginia sandwiched a National Championship run in
2019 between two first round exits should be the subject of 30 for 30. This year, they didn't even wait until the first round to give a performance worthy of 1960's NIT play. That
team truly is hot garbage and I can’t be empathetic.
My second takeaway is
that gambling sucks. Or maybe it is that I suck at gambling and this is
stressing me out! There have been a number of exercises in this class to help
me manage stress and these don’t work at all. I need to just put my fist
through a wall. Thanks Kentucky.
With that, the first day of games is complete and we have
our first 16 winners in the block pool.
On to Day 2!
Your Commissioner.
