What role does love play in sports? Better yet, how important is it for players to know that their parents love them? If there is no crying in baseball, can there be love letters in football? The answer is YES!
In Episode 69 of The Weekly YAP - Travis talks with high school football coach Masaki Matsumoto about leadership, culture...and love! Masaki was featured a few years ago on ESPN's sports journalism show E:60. The story tells about Masaki coaching at an inner city high school in Los Angeles and noticing the number of kids that came from tough backgrounds or single-parent homes. Over the summer, unknown to all of his players, Masaki asked all of the parents to write a letter to their son telling them how much they love him. Masaki then surprised all of the players one day at practice with the letters, and it had a profound impact on the team. Among other things - it led to their most successful season ever!
