Complimentary Football vs. Derogatory Football


Recommended Posts

McDermott always preaches how we need to play “complimentary football” and I agree...whether you are training your dog, teaching your kid how to catch a baseball, eating your wife’s “new recipe” dinner or building a football team, it’s 100 times better to compliment others than to yell at them or criticize them. 

 

Did you ever see McDermott on the sideline during a game or even at training camp? He’s always complimenting the players, clapping at them, saying “nice job” or “well done Nate/Josh/etc”. 

 

The old expression “You can catch a mouse with honey and not vinegar” rings true. If coaches compliment players, then players will compliment each other...it’s creates a positive environment. There’s no place for derogatory remarks in the NFL. Those coaches who are hard-***** rarely do well. 

 

Complimentary football all is superior to derogatory/critical football. Just my opinion.

I thought the expression was “You can draw flies with honey, but if you really want to see a swarm trot Nate Peterman out on the field and let him poop his pants again.”

 

Now if only you could catch more footballs with honey... or vinegar... or s***... the Bills could slather whichever worked best on Kelvin Benjamin before the game and at the half and he might actually function like a WR again.

 

The honey might make it easier for the DB to stick to him, though.

 

On the other hand, the s*** might help him get some separation from the DB, cuz, I mean, who’d want to cover Kelvin Benjamin when he’s covered in s***, right?  

 

I suspect s*** won’t help him catch balls, though. Everything about him has been s*** this season... his attitude, his effort, his understanding of the offense, and despite so much KB related s*** he can’t catch a cold, so I guess the evidence for covering him in s*** to help him catch balls is probably not there... I’d still like to do it though... you know, just to see... and because he deserves it.

Folks - here’s a prime example of derogatory posting. Complimentary posting (like complimentary football) helps a team grow. This post does nothing but denigrate others who wish to practice conplimentary posting.

You are one of the better witless posters at this site.

 

Is that better?
