Catholic Coaches

Many of you know that I am a huge sports fan. My greatest sports passion is usually reserved for the Browns followed by the Indians and Cavaliers. During the Browns season I usually watch the game with my dad. Nothing is more enjoyable than sitting around and watching a game with Dad. I thank my dad for giving me my love of sports and a kid and now as an adult.
There are many Catholic coaches and that I have watched that have really inspired me also. They carry themselves with class and dignity and show you that you do not have to lose your humility to be a great athlete or coach. Some of these coaches that I can think of are Lou Holtz and Gerry Faust both from Notre Dame. Jack McKeon former baseball manager of San Diego Padres and Florida Marlins. Danny Abramowicz a former NFL Coach with New Orleans Saints, Mike Ditka (We all know who he is) Dave Wannstedt, University of Pittsburgh head coach and Jack Del Rio head coach of Jacksonville Jaguars. I also can't forget Don Shula and Chuck Noll who are both retired from NFL.
The reason I mention these coaches is their great work ethic and devotion to being the very best men and coaches they can be. Many of these men follow 3 simple steps in their life 1)Daily Mass 2)Devotion to our lady 3)Prayer. i try to follow these in my life as well but I am not as good at it as I could be.
Beginning in the fall I begin studies for my teaching licensure in secondary education. I would love to teach social studies for high school and hopefully coach baseball or football at the same level. I feel that I have a lot to give back, and that through these 3 simple things these previous coaches did on a daily basis I can achieve the same thing
