Good Ol' Boys (GoB) Talk on Redemption

 
On the 5th hole.  Down by three strokes and you’ve just hit a water ball.  Some people take a mulligan and some people will let them.  I won’t take a water ball, I take the penalty.  It’s still a competition between Dan and Nate, but for me, it’s just turned into a round of redemption.  I’m not playing myself.  I’ve just given myself an opportunity to play the best game of redemption of my life. 



I’m down $200 gambling.  Call it a night.  Most people would.  Some people wouldn’t, and those that wouldn’t you have to be a little worried about.  Most people don’t rely so well on their gambling ability.  Take out $200 more, take a seat at the poker table, and turn this night, into a night; of redemption.



It’s a little bit after midnight, and you try to keep up with the fellas.  It’s not about you, it’s about the fellas.  Well the fellas are about 60 pounds heavier than you and you haven’t been goin’ easy on yourself.  The dance floor looks real good, and at this stage in the night, it really, really shouldn’t. 



Go to bed, you are obviously done for the night.  Or are you?  Put down your whiskey and coke, and pick up a red bull vodka.  You’ve just turned this night, from a night of loss, into the golden opportunity of redemption,

and nobody can take that away from you.
