    It is important to click on the link within the link to read the letter to which Coach Shula refers. That is the purpose of this topic. I was moved by the letter.

    I've said this before

    <t>I think we were talking about playing football after a national tragedy or major military event, but I know when I was deployed one of the few things I looked forward to after mail from my wife and daughters was sports news. I would be tremendously disappointed to learn that we didn't play a college football game for any reason. I'm not sure that the general public realizes what a major role sports play in the morale of most servicemen. Good article.</t>
