You grow up playing sports all your life. You find out others are a little better than you at some sports. You find a way to still make an impact in said sports.
And, if you're doing it right, people will remember you more than they remember the ones you played sports with.

I agree with you, John.
The Big Ten's decision to postpone football has been at least partially undermined by poor communication, a lack of transparency, and apparent waffling. But I still have a hard time believing Commissioner Warren is eager to sabotage his new position just to tip an election.
