Lessons learned through playing basketball

Vice President candidate Sarah Palin has a feature in the Detroit Free Press dealing with her basketball experience.
“I’ve said this before, that everything I ever needed to know I learned on the basketball team,” she said. “All about setting goals and working hard and having self-discipline and knowing what strengths were in the team members and then assembling those team members and tasking the team to fulfill missions. That’s what you learn in sports.”
