Boom

In our life there are things we give 100% effort to. In fact we are trying so hard that people will say that "they" gave 110% or even a higher number. Obviously 100% is maximum effort but there are so very few times that others see individuals giving that 100% effort that when they do see it they say that person gave even more than 100%. We've all had days where everything was just right, we were completely rested, we were inspired, motivated and completely ready to give 100%. Physically and emotionally we know that we gave it our very best effort. Paul Allen who does the Minnesota Vikings broadcasts wears his emotions on his sleeves, but he gives that 100% effort every game. From the opening "Boom" kick-off to the final gun, Paul does an amazing job calling the game. He has seen a lot of heart wrenching plays during the years but as a great professional he has persevered and here's hoping, maybe, just maybe this season the Purple won't break his heart and they will not only be the first team in the NFL to play a home Super Bowl game but also be the first team to win that game and this from an avid Green Bay Packer fan. If you check Youtube you can hear the emotion and passion in his calls, unfortunately many of those calls were downers. When you click the picture below you will be treated to a spectacular call of a Brett Favre TD pass against San Francisco for a Viking victory. The point I'm trying to make here is we all have things in life we are doing that we can do better, use this as an example and remember a little bit better each and every day.

A packed house full of fans, enthusiasm, and passion
