Being kind and thoughtful has its advantages.
Just take the relationship between San Diego State University and the University of San Diego, for example.
Thanks to the generosity of USD, an SDSU sports enthusiast will now be able to watch the Aztecs play a “home” game in the second round of the NIT on Friday night at USD’s Jenny Craig Pavilion.
Two years ago, USD was in a similar bind. The Toreros were hosting a four-team regional in the NCAA Baseball Tournament but couldn’t play at home because they do not have lights.
USD thus turned to SDSU, which allowed the Toreros to play their “home” games at Tony Gwynn Stadium.
Lesson learned: Never expect a favor to be returned when you do a favor.
However, if you do someone a favor, you have a much greater chance of them returning the niceness.

Let's hope SDSU doesn't lose at USD. That's what the Toreros did at SDSU!
