Antediluvia. Now.
OK Nashville is beyond capacity to describe. wild, warped aftermath of 14 inches of rain in two days. roaring creeks swept cars off lots, people to their doom and submerged homes and businesses a half mile inland either side of the cumberland river.
even seeing it does not make you necessarily believe it.
but after the flood comes the rebuilding. a lot of it.
but nashville is the technicolor cartoon in 4/4 time. when it comes to ego, we are professionals.
so it will be built back and the renascence will--mark the words of the ol thought coach--stun all who have the blessing of watching or helping to make it happen.
The Renascence will happen.
DMSC Govchal: Serious game.
Nashville's at stake.
There's a nation at stake.
These are our lives and they are happening right now.
In this world and no other.
The team will take a knee and a quick breather.
The team will collect itself and give support where needed.
And then the team will rededicate to the positive outcome and will surpass even its own expectations.
which are high. which are ambitious.
Which are aspirational and intentional in the best of all possible ways, in the best of all possible worlds.
A serious game.
Hard fun.
