Don't Give Up, Don't Ever Give Up

The Syracuse-Oklahoma State game was played for a good cause, the V Foundation for Cancer Research.
The Foundation started the night Jim Valvano gave his famous speech at the ESPYs. The speech is not available on YouTube, but you can watch a small clip of it on the above site. You can get a copy of it on DVD with a donation of $30. I just did that because I felt bad that I never did anything productive with the money I receive from the charitable soda machine.

Mike and I are the only two people in the world who make fun of this speech. We always joke about Rocco and Angelina Valvano. "I can't help it. That's being the son of Rocco and Angelina Valvano. It comes with the territory. We hug, we kiss, we love."
