In the middle of getting destroyed by some nerdy tennis kids, my coach tells me, "If nothing else just know this, you will always get more women and dates than they will." And walks off...stuck with me to this day. Such a great man full of wisdom and truth.

"If we don't work, we don't eat"


from mother

I was given an assignment to write something, while the professor went to his office.
I wrote something. I said, "I was hampered by a headache from an allergy".
Professor said, "Everyone can write. What distinguishes the great, the successful, from the rest of them, is that the great ones write no matter how they feel."

I don't feel like I learned anything from any coaches. Two of them were sadists. I was glad when they each went to prison. I had the feeling that all my coaches were sadists from the 5th grade basketball on.

after not blocking the correct defensive end, I still ran up field to "earhole" a strong safety to the ground...Offensive line coach says, "I don't care that you made a mistake...if you make a mistake, make it going 100 mph"

"You can't make chicken salad out of chicken shite."

Idk why but that's probably one of the only phrases I remember.

We work hard everyday at practice so on game day we'll get paid.

If you can survive my practice the games will be easy for you

Indirect quote: Baseball is a game where there the guys who make the hall of fame are career .300 hitters, which is awesome.. but think about that for a minute, that means the best players in the game FAIL 7 out of 10 times - The game will beat you up enough, you don't have to do it to yourself




It was a life lesson that I really didn't think about much til I got older, but I never realized how right he was until I became a parent... life lessons in a sport, who woulda thunk it

My playing days are over but I can guarantee this will be in the back of my head while I'm teaching my son the game.. I've seen it too much from parents - they mentally destroy (either intentionally or unintentionally) their children to the point where the game is not fun for them anymore and their overall feeling of self worth spills over into everyday life.. build your kids up, don't break them down

"Life is all about mind over matter. If you don't mind, it don't matter."

"I don't care if the fricking ball is laces in, sideways, sitting on the fricking holder's head--you got one job-- put it through the uprights."

"Y'all just remember this before y'all beat these guys for their homecoming game--it's hard to dance with a sore arse."
