Get Up Champ!

Probably nobody remembers the movie called Champ from years ago and it didn't exactly win any Oscar's. But, it was a pretty touching flick.

Jon Voight played an over the hill boxer and Ricky Schroeder played his son of about 7 years of age. Jon Voight's character is a single father and is pretty close to his son.

Honestly, I don't really remember that much about the movie except the ending.

The Voight character takes a fight and is beaten, in fact he is killed in the ring. They have him laying on a table and the young son is screaming at him, 'get up champ' over and over again. Pretty touching.

Jon Voight wasn't a champ in this movie but a washed up has been, or even a never was. But, to his son, he was champ.

The same is true for all of us in this life. We are a champ to somebody and somebody wants us to get up and continue the fight.
Sometimes it feels easier to just lay there, but we need to get up and continue the fight.



SO, GET UP CHAMP!!!!!

This has nothing to do with those lame Morningstar guys that used the word champ waaaaayyyy to often.
