It's not a political article, but it's an uplifing one. John Wooden is a class act.

Awesome article. I am e-mailing this one to my dad who is a big John Wooden fan. I can remember my dad quoting Wooden to me as a teenager when he said, “Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is who you really are, while your reputation is merely who others think you are.”

Thanks for sharing.

Bringing the best out of young people by developing their character; what a quaint idea.

God bless him.
