Worst feelings:
1. Getting stung by a bee
2. Calf cramp
3. Waking up to the GroupMe roasting you because you spent $33 of FAAB on someone that nobody else bid more than $5 for

A phrase coaches should repeat 1000x:
"Don't mistake good results for permission to abandon the process."

"Society has gotten soft in a lot of ways... The real world is tough and cruel... I'm preparing my players for life."
The teachers and coaches that impact lives the most are the ones who pushed you beyond your comfort level.
The real world is tough; our job is to make sure our players are equipped to handle it.

Trot Nixon said it in high school:
"My goal is to be the best hitter to ever walk the face of the earth."
Most people would never say that out loud. The fear of being judged for wanting too much keeps the goal small and the life smaller.
He wasn't afraid.
He didn't wear it on a shirt. But it lived in every rep.
And in 2004, he was in right field when the Red Sox reversed the curse.
Here's the lesson:
Clarity of ambition isn't arrogance. It's direction.
You can't hit a target you're too afraid to name.
That's discipline. Not motivation. Motivation is a feeling.
Discipline is an identity.

Jeremiyah Love faced the lowest rate of light boxes in this draft class last season (35.2% of his attempts).
When he did face a box with 6 or fewer defenders (70 attempts), he averaged 9.1 yards per carry, the most in the country.

Jets DC Steve Wilks comments on Baker Mayfield getting cut by Wilks in Carolina:
"I don’t think an interim coach has much say over personnel. If that were the case, I wouldn’t have gotten rid of our best player, Christian McCaffrey."
