sports football strong
Build up your weaknesses until they become your strong points.
motivational teamwork play
The secret is to work less as individuals and more as a team. As a coach, I play not my eleven best, but my best eleven.
sports football heart
I don't like to lose, and that isn't so much because it is just a football game, but because defeat means the failure to reach your objective. I don't want a football player who doesn't take defeat to heart, who laughs it off with the thought, "Oh, well, there's another Saturday." The trouble in American life today, in business as well as in sports, is that too many people are afraid of competition. The result is that in some circles people have come to sneer at success if it costs hard work and training and sacrifice.

Make the present good, and the past will take care of itself.

Courage means being afraid to do something, but still doing it.

One man practicing sportsmanship is far better than a hundred teaching it.
encouragement team player
An automobile goes nowhere efficiently unless it has a quick, hot spark to ignite things, to set the cogs of the machine in motion. So I try to make every player on my team feel he's the spark keeping our machine in motion.
