“I imagine that a successful atheist must have decided that his life is his complete responsibility. He’s probably decided that there’s no afterlife, so he’s got to make the most of the here and now. Those can be very useful concepts. But some of the best coaches I know of were spiritual men. Joe Gibbs was very single-minded about winning, but he takes a part of every week to discuss faith with a men’s group. Vince Lombardi went to Mass every day. John Calipari does the same.”
