    He talks about success. He also gets some kind of honorary doctor title at the end.

    "I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times i've been trusted to take the game winning shot.. and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life and that's why I've succeeded". Michael Jordan.

    Watch these videos.

    Then be glad this man is playing for us and not against us.

    Bright guy and I wish he would have spoken at UT this spring with his Knoxville ties (he played his high school football here and lived almost in my home town for a while also almost playing for my high school but they sucked so he went to Webb High School in Knoxville or so the legend goes). We got Dolly Partin...*sarcastic* yay. Hopefully I can catch him this summer at the football camp he does every year at Webb for maybe an autograph. Nice speech though.

    Chad Pennington always has been, and always will be a class act.
