COT
AOL led a similar Southwood Q exactly a year ago with 11 men.
If you’re going for 100 posts, you should have 67 by the end of August, 75 should have 50, 50 should have 34. Encourage everyone to set a goal of at least 50 a year. Write it down and share it with your F3 brothers for accountability.

Drew Brees won the 2019 Espy for Best Record Breaking Performance for passing Peyton Manning’s 71,940 career passing yardage (Brees currently has 74,437) and Brett Favre’s 6,300 career completions (Brees currently has 6,586) records. He’s 40 years old and doesn’t look much more athletic than us.

During his acceptance speech, he first thanked his wife, then the fans, then his teammates and coaches. He talked about the values that he shares often with his sons. Gratitude, humility, and respect are the 3 greatest qualities as a human being.

AOL shared how these 3 qualities exemplify F3.

LD shared a story about Drew Brees playing basketball with his sons at WaterColor. He’s a good guy in real life.
FNG Ryan Cappas had his 3rd post and was named Mr Kotter.
Energizer has lost 30 pounds since September. Gotten his life in order with God’s help.
El Jefe has one week left on his diet. Looking forward to getting his energy back.
Ron Swanson is humbled by the determination of F3 men, but more because of the mental determination, rather than the physical.
Deep Dish is humbled after one month off.

Mickey Mouse has the Southwood Q next Friday.
