stinky finger Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 23 hours ago, WhoTom said: This one has been attributed to numerous coaches, but the consensus is that Vince Lombardi was the first: "When you get to the end zone, act like you've been there before." I try to keep that in mind after any professional accomplishment. I mean, yeah, it's good to be proud of your work, but hey - that's what you get paid for. One of my favorites.

GunnerBill Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 So my favourite moment of sports commentary (will be no surprise to those who understand my username) is "It's up for grabs nowwwwww!" My two favourite quotes from sports coaches are both from the great Vince Lombardi: "The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will." "Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work." And of course my favourite motivational soundbite (and I used this myself as a soccer coach when we lost a league title on goal difference on the final day of a season): "Fight on my men, Sir Andrew said, A little I'm hurt, but not yet slain; I'll just lay down and bleed a while, And then I'll rise and fight again."
