We have a saying in Louisiana "Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler", which simply means "Let the Good Times Roll". As a sports fan in Louisiana I've learned constantly to live in the moment because the joy of winning is fleeting and before you know it, you're rebuilding and looking for some help to get back to your winning ways.
