Francis was never supposed gezegde

When golf used to be a rich man's sport, if you were poor you could not step foot on a course. Francis was a caddy. He grew up across the street from the course, looked up to Harry Vardon (played by Stephen Dillane in the film), this five-time British Open champion — but he was never allowed to play.

 There's a similar story with St. Francis and the wolf. The wolf was terrorizing a village, eating kids and older people. They couldn't catch or kill him, but Francis found it in the woods and tamed it with God's help.

 We didn't get the shot down; Gabe didn't get it down. Francis gets us an offensive rebound, and he kicks. You know, he has the presence of mind to kick, and Stewart stepped into it in rhythm.

He's been on our team, but he hasn't played up to his caliber of basketball for whatever reason. We're just trying to get to the bottom of that and get him back to playing basketball the way he's capable of playing.

 I don't know a lot about them. I know they're a good team. But I think we match up OK. They have quick guards and press you. They beat Lisle and Lisle beat us twice. They beat Wheaton St. Francis (de Sales) by 13 and we beat St. Francis by 18.
