Sundance Wicks said his staff started "charting excuses" his players had in the first half against Regis tonight.
"Let's just make a whole booklet of all the excuses of why it's not working out for us. Chart it. Eventually, we're just going to read your excuses back to you, and then you're going to find out, 'Man, that's pretty soft.'"
Watching Hoosiers tonight also brings back memories of our program traveling to Indiana & the basketball “Holy Land.” Such an amazing experience… Can’t believe it was almost 8 years ago! #WeAreAC ✊🏻🏀
There is nothing like watching Hoosiers right before the start of another season to make me so grateful to be called “coach!” #MyTeamsOnTheFloor 🏀
So proud of the players & coaches of @ACPatriotsFB ! Well done @farmer411 & crew! 💪🏻🏈 #WeAreAC

It was great to get in the gym & learn from some top notch coaches this morning at a really good clinic! Thank you @OsceolaBoys for the opportunity! #SuccessLeavesClues
I have memories of listening to this song with my Dad. Funny how little things like this can bring back so many memories.
As the 1st qtr ends, i'm feeling grateful to be a Patriot! What a fall so far for our @goacpatriots !

Are we helping kids… or teaching them to run from hard things?
I see this all the time in schools.
A student has a problem with a teacher, coach, classmate, or situation, and too often the first response is to remove the problem.
Switch the class.
Quit the team.
Avoid the conversation.
Have the parent step in and fix it.
I understand the instinct. We don’t want to see our kids struggle.
But Dr. Becky Kennedy said something powerful:
“The more you optimize for happiness in childhood, the more you actually wire for anxiety in adulthood.”
Kids need to learn that disappointment is survivable.
Conflict is survivable.
Failure is survivable.
Being uncomfortable is survivable.
Sometimes the best thing we can do for kids isn’t remove the hard thing.
It’s help them learn how to walk through it.

Joe Mazzulla on reports of the Celtics vibes being high at training camp
"Every team you lead is the most together team right now. Because we haven't traveled. No one's gotten benched. No one's been on a losing streak. No one's gotten blamed in the media. No one's had to go stand in the corner for 10 minutes and not get the ball. So, you learn those things as the season goes on, and you just learn how to work through those things together. And you can't simulate those. It just comes with time. And so, right now I would say all 30 teams feel great about themselves, and we got to wait till adversity hits. And adversity is even a strong word. There's nothing really adverse about playing in the NBA. But we got to wait until stuff doesn't go your way, and then you got to figure out who we are and how we're going to be at our best."

So thankful for all of the coaches I had growing up, and for all of the coaches that I have been lucky enough to work with over the last 28 years! So grateful to be a part of this profession! Proverbs 27:17 🙏

Unpopular opinion: Not everyone deserves a response.
Leave the message on read.
Ignore the comment.
Don’t answer the question.
Not everything deserves your time, energy, or attention.
Sometimes silence is the only explanation needed. 💯

There’s nothing wrong with hard.
What’s wrong is expecting to get better while avoiding everything that challenges you.
You have to choose the work before you earn the result.

The dishes are in the sink because people ate.
The shoes are by the door because people came home.
The toys are scattered everywhere because people were happy.
Some of the mess is proof of a good life.
Stay grateful.

If you are getting to watch your Kids today performing or playing Sports , you can’t have a bad day. There’s nothing that should take away your Joy of those hours, minutes or moments. It’s priceless.
Don’t waste it getting mad about something that’s nothing or mad at someone.
