If you want to get a deal, negotiate with the teams yourself. Say, "I want this much, and no less, but I'll show up to camp on time." It doesn't seem that hard to me.

People eyeing you as a potential leader tend to ask three questions: Are you committed? Do you care about me? Can I trust you?

You must have dreams and goals if you are ever going to achieve anything in this world.

No one has ever drowned in sweat.

Nothing is as good as it seems and nothing is as bad, but somewhere between reality falls.

Give your players something they can physically do - don't ask them to do something they can't do.

You were not born a winner, and you were not born a loser. You are what you make yourself be.
