Querí acompartir con todos una cuestión que ha estado rondandome la cabeza estas últimas semanas...
Tenemos una crisis por medio, tenemos uno de los retos más difíciles que se hayan afrontado en la historia, y qué estamos haciendo... ??? Me venía el otro día un recuerdo de una película con un mensaje claramente identificado con los speechs que se sueltan en las películas motivadas en el deporte profesional americano, y me recordaba que lo que necesitamos es unión, como equipo, el reto se consigue sólo si lo hacemos de esta forma, sino...
"Bien podemos vivir como un equipo, o morir como individuos"
El discurso integro para los que no saben bien inglés...:
"I don't know what to say really.
Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives
all comes down to today.
Either we heal as a team or we are going to crumble.
Inch by inch, play by play, till we're finished.
We are in hell right now, gentlemen, believe me
and
we can stay here and get the shit kicked out of us,
or we can fight our way back into the light.
We can climb out of hell.
One inch, at a time.
Now I can't do it for you. I'm too old.
I look around and I see these young faces and I think I mean
I made every wrong choice a middle age man could make. I uh....
I pissed away all my money, believe it or not.
I chased off anyone who has ever loved me.
And lately,
I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.
You know when you get old in life
things get taken from you.
That's, that's part of life.
But, you only learn that when you start losing stuff.
You find out that life is just a game of inches.
So is football.
Because in either game life or football,
the margin for error is so small.
I mean, one half step too late or to earlyyou don't quite make it.
One half second too slow or too fast and you don't quite catch it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us.
They are in ever break of the game, every minute, every second.
On this team, we fight for that inch
On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch.
We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch.
Cause we know when we add up all those inches that's going to make the fucking difference
between WINNING and LOSING
between LIVING and DYING.
I'll tell you this in any fight it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch.
And I know if I am going to have any life anymore it is because,
I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch,
because that is what LIVING is.
The six inches in front of your face.
Now I can't make you do it.
You gotta look at the guy next to you.
Look into his eyes.
Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you.
You are going to see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team
because he knows when it comes down to it,
you are gonna do the same thing for him.
That's a team, gentlemen and either we heal now, as a team,
or we will die as individuals.
That's football guys.
That's all it is.
Now, whattaya gonna do?"

Los que hemos vivido el deporte desde dentro sabemos lo que es, lo que es un equipo... vamos a intentar trasladarlo al resto...
depende de nosotros, tenemos un camino que caminar, duro y largo, vamos a tratar de hacerlo juntos, o sino, vamos a caer por el camino...
y no perdamos más el tiempo con tonterías.
