What's UR Favorite Football/Inspiration Quote?

DawgBiscuit

Here a few from one of the Greatest Coaches ever... Vince Lombardi...

"Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.

Winners never quit and quitters never win.

It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get up.

The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.

Winning is not everything, but wanting to win is.

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.

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing.

Practice doesn’t make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.

Football is like life - it requires perseverance, self-denial, hard work, sacrifice, dedication and respect for authority."

My HS football coach played for Lombardi at Fordham (in the late 1940's) and would quote him constantly - my respect for both men led to my HS yearbook quote: "The dictionary is the only place where success comes before work. Hard work is the price we pay for success." Vince Lombardi

P.S. My coach would also say things like (if someone was arm tackling): "Hit Him! Stop with this 'waltz me around again willy' stuff."

Having coached football and lacrosse for 15 years, and being known as a "fiery, motivational style coach", I've given literally hundreds of pregame, halftime, and postgame motivational speeches/quotes. Some were good/great, others, not so much! That said, the following pregame speech given by Coach Flowers of Leland High School is one that always fires me up, and makes me wish I had given it!

You have to hate losing more than you love winning

When a player got hurt, my HS baseball coach would utter the classic "rub some dirt on it".

"You’re five-feet-nothing. A hundred and nothing. And you’ve got hardly a speck of athletic ability. And you hung in with the best college football team in the land — for two years. And you’re also gonna walk out of here with a degree from the University of Notre Dame. In this lifetime you don’t have to prove nothing to nobody except yourself. And after what you’ve gone through, if you haven’t done that by now, it ain’t gonna never happen."

Fortune chewing Rudy's a55 for missing practice...one of my favorites.

Is anyone else seeing the Torrid Curve advertisements? What’s up with that? Are they selling lingerie for big girls?

When I was kid one of my teammates asked if he could go wash his mouthpiece off because it had dirt on it. Our coach would say, “Put it in your mouth and play through it. That will make hair grow on your chest.”
