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

The only true satisfaction a player receives is the satisfaction that comes from being part of a successful team, regardless of his personal accomplishments.

Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent's pressure, and the temporary failures.

If you can accept losing, you can't win.

If you really want something , you can have it if you're willing to pay the price. And the price means you have to work better and harder than the next guy.

A leader must identify himself with the group, must back up the group, even at the risk of displeasing superiors. He must believe that the group wants from him a sense of approval. If this feeling prevails, production, discipline, morale will be high, and in return, you can demand the cooperation to promote the goals of the community.
