Handling Blown Situations In A Cool Way To Contain The Fire


Once again I am referring to Armondo Galaragga, the pitcher who was robbed of a perfect game during the last out of the game. The strange thing is, though, that he handled the situation beautifully. I do not believe anyone could have handled the situation better, because he did not yell or take his anger out on Umpire Jim Joyce but rather smiled and got the next batter out completing the shutout. This again reminded me of how this relates to Ancient situations. In the matter of the siege of Alesia by Caesar, things were going great. He was slowly starving the Gauls inside to death and the Gauls that were approaching him from behind were dealt with by building another wall from behind him. But then it happened, during the last part of the the siege the Gaulish armies from behind combined their attack to break the rear wall forcing Caesar's legions to back themselves against the initial wall they had built for the siege of Alesia. But, instead of panicking he led a cavalry charge to finish of the attackers and finish the chances of the siege being broken.
