Resist temptation and it will flee from you

When a team wins a division title, they celebrate with champagne and beer flowing. While to most of us that might sound smelly, cold, and sticky, to some it sounds fun. And to others, it sounds dangerous. For a guy who is a recovering alcoholic and drug-addict, it sounds like a great way to accidentally (or not so accidentally) get it into your system.

And so, when the Texas Rangers clinched the American League West, Josh Hamilton skipped the party. While the rest of the guys went to the clubhouse, he went straight to the trainer's room. And when his understanding teammates came to douse him with water, he stopped them, not wanting to even give the appearance of having been in the party because of what that might do to his testimony.

And so, while the rest of the Rangers went wild, Josh Hamilton stayed dry, and kept a commitment to speak to fans in Oakland about his faith instead. Good job, Josh.
