Why I believe Jim Valvano’s legacy and spirit can beat cancer

Read a recollection of N.C. State’s 1982-83 Men’s Basketball championship team and why I believe through what that team accomplished as led by head coach Jim Valvano that one day we’re gonna beat cancer. Jim said in his unforgettable ESPY speech, “Don’t give up, don’t ever give up.” His team that accomplished the greatest upset in American sports history personified that ideal and reflected the indomitable spirit of a man with enough guts to believe that he could take cancer head on and make a difference.

I would further argue that Stephen Spielberg is one of the 10 greatest film directors in American cinema history.
