It's too late for preparation when opportunity strikes.
Push yourself to keep improving or you'll stay as close to the bottom as you are to the top
Remember this, the choices you make in life, make you.
Never allow anyone else to define your success.
Don't mistake activity with achievement.
I would not tolerate profanity from anyone, anytime. I'd blow the whistle, pull you from the court and put you on the bench and talk to you before I would put you back in.
