mom running kids
To win, I'd run over Joe's mom too.
mistake guy picks
They're my mistakes. ... I didn't pick the right guys.
leader appreciated needed
Leaders are never appreciated or needed until you don't have them,
football play people
We want the right people, the ones who love to play football. I want a guy who, if I punch him in the mouth, doesn't stand there and say, ?Why did you punch me?' I want the guy who punches me back first, and then asks me why I did it.
mother running winning
I'd run over Russ Grimm's mother to win the Super Bowl, too.
jobs should-have years
What I should have done, if I was going to be a GM, was gone on the road, gotten into the personnel a lot better. To do that job, you've gotta do it all year. I just did it at draft time.
jobs player thinking
I think every coach has to adapt to what they have, because they're what you get. You can't just go out to the player tree and pick all the great ones. That doesn't happen. You get a Barry Sanders every now and then. You get a Billy Sims every once in a while. And when you have it, you adapt to their strengths. Whoever comes in here and whoever has this job needs to adapt and will do that.
thoughtful appreciate giving
To quote a recent customer email, “I really appreciate your thoughtful and professional response. I don’t get that a lot from customer service. Usually, it’s scripted nonsense that makes it seem like I’ve done something wrong. You’ve single-handedly improved my perception tenfold. Someone there ought to give you a pay raise.
people making-money excuse
People who say it takes money to make money are using the worst excuse ever. . . Create massive value for others by providing a solution where no other exists.
people logos relate
Ultimately a good logo is something that people recognize instantly and relate to.
choices risk small-business
The main thing that 99designs is about is choice. Its a fantastic model that eliminates risk for small business owners and puts designers on equal footing.
design development firsts
I was really just a hard-core geek, if you will, in 1996, and was building websites as a hobby. I started doing a lot of web design and development and built my first website on the now-defunct GeoCities platform.
hands office leaving
Don't drag candidates through weeks of endless interviews. Don't flake out on interviews. At DeveloperAuction, we often have offer letters prepared in advance, so we can hand them to great candidates as they are leaving the office.
years names two
On April 1, 1998, I launched Webmaster-Resources.com, and I remember that date specifically because it was the date that the price of a two-year domain name registration dropped from $100 to $70, and considering I was funding this out of my allowance, that $30 made all the difference.
