The Eleventh Tuesday: We Talk About Our Culture(2/27) Mitch’s story about Morrie at the college basketball game is humorous. Apparently‚ at a game at Brandeis in the 70’s‚ the crowd began shouting‚ “We’re number one!” Morrie‚ puzzled‚ stood up in the middle of the gymnasium and shouted‚ “What’s wrong with being number two?” We seem to lose our sense of pride in simple accomplishment as we grow up.
