I love seeing everyday people wearing the jerseys, caps and jackets of their favorite sports team and sports heros. True fans wear the branded apparel with pride. Even when the team is struggling, the true fans support their team and players without waiver. They will defend their team and believe that every new season will usher in the potential of a better record or even a championship. They believe that the coaching and the players are going to work together to improve not just because of the fans but because they want to succeed.
Bad years can always be expected. But what if we wore the team jersey with pride that demonstrated real support, not jumping ship? No one improves by running away from legitimate challenges. You can always find great teams and great players. What about being one of the reasons a team is great and you being one of those great players? Don’t be a fair-weather fan, and even still a fair-weather player.

Tim, I am proud that you have stayed the course with the things and people that you believe in, even when it was not popular. I am also proud to be one of those people in whom you believe.
You know all the Berry fam has “Team Pecoraro” jerseys on and we ain’t taking them off any time soon! Love you man.
