Manic
Depression

The
psychology instructor had just finished a lecture on mental health and
was giving an oral test. Speaking specifically about manic depression,
she asked, "How would you diagnose a patient who walks back and forth
screaming at the top of his lungs one minute, then sits in a chair weeping
uncontrollably the next?"
A young man in the rear raised his hand and answered, "A basketball coach?" |

Barry
Switzer

Before
he was terminated by the Dallas Cowboys football team, Coach Barry Switzer
was seeking advice all around the NFL on what ingredient makes for a
winning football team. He eventually sought out Steve Mariucci of the
San Francisco Forty-Niners, who told him that the MOST important thing
to having a winning football team was to have a quarterback who was
extremely smart and as proof he took him over to quarterback, Steve
Young, and asked Steve this question: "Who is your father's brother's
nephew?"

Baseball, "America's Favorite Pastime," has reached its annual championship as the World Series is played this week.

Heavenly
Baseball
|
|
|
Two
buddies Frank and Steve were two of the biggest baseball fans in America.
For their entire adult lives, Frank and Steve discussed baseball history
in the winter and they pored over every box score during the season. They
went to 60 games a year. They even agreed that whoever died first would
try to come back and tell the other if there was baseball in heaven.
One summer night,
Frank passed away in his sleep after watching the Yankee victory earlier
in the evening. He died happy. A few nights later, his buddy Steve awoke
to the sound of Frank's voice from beyond. "Frank is that you?"
Steve asked. "Of course it's me," Frank replied. "This
is unbelievable!" Steve exclaimed. "So tell me, is there baseball
in heaven?" "Tell me the good news first." "Well, the good news is that, yes, there is baseball in heaven, Steve." "Oh, that is wonderful! So what could possibly be the bad news?" "You're pitching tomorrow night." |
