Him
Man, I think somebody needs to explain the power of positive thinking to you. And there’s no power in saying, “I think our guys are going to be determined now.”
Hey, they’re either going to be more determined or they’re not–which is it? And this kind of language reveals a lot of incongruity on you’re part. You might as well say, “I HOPE our guys are determined; I HOPE our guys are going to work.” Because in saying you “think” so, you’re not sure.
Which comes back to you and your uninspiring leadership. You and your staff just don’t seem to know how to make this team believe in itself. And believing starts with the LANGUAGE of belief, the LANGUAGE of real enthusiasm, the LANGUAGE of real determination, passion and other good stuff such as that.
Your language as the leader of the team is to believe, really believe, so passionately that the team will believe.
Coach, there’s just no heart of champions in the team, and that’s a reflection of the hearts of the staff (and the QB, but that’s another posting for another day).
There’s none of the proverbial “killer instinct,” a requirement for a champion’s kind of heart and guts.
The New York Giants have all the right stuff, and therefore found a way to win a real slobberknocker of a game. They believe, and their coach shows passionate and grit, and their quarterback, as quiet and reserved and cool and calm and collected as he appears, has a lot of killer instinct down in the depths of his heart and guts. He’s going to find a way to crush another team, no matter how far behind or how tough the resistance. He’s like his coach that way; he’s out to crush and obliterate the other team’s morale and spirit and belief and very hearts and guts.
Coach, you’re a very nice, easy-going man, but coach . . . . . that’s not always a good thing in football.
Oh wait–that was some lame language!
That not a good thing in football at all, man! Eat you some GRITS!
