My son Philip, the avid Florida Gator fan, was ecstatic. The CBS Sports announcers were amazed by the play. They were talking about the “perfect reception” and the “perfect pass”, and then commented that the Georgia defender had defended “perfectly”. It doesn’t get any better than that in football, which is a game whose purpose is to try to get your opponent to make the mistake that will give you the advantage.
It hit me midsentence as Philip and I were discussing this later on the internet. As I wrote about the amazing moment – A perfect offense always beats a perfect defense-- I added as a postscript, now that’s a great Philosophy of Life.
How often do we spend our entire lives reacting to what the world throws at us instead of taking charge with a plan that will bring us success? Is every play successful at advancing the ball? Certainly not! But - A perfect offense always beats a perfect defense. And in the end, it was a touchdown!

Uncle Sam,
