I just feel that my competitive drive is far greater than anyone else that I've met, and I think that I thrive on that.

You're an idiot. You've screwed up every play we ever ran. You're too stupid to even remember the plays. We ought to get rid of you.

If you don't back it up with performance and hard work, talking doesn't mean a thing.
