A Quote by Ara Parseghian
The game is not won by a pep talk on Saturday. It's won by preparation of your club from Monday until game time. If they're not ready on Saturday, you're not going to get them ready by trying to inspire them with a dog-eat-dog sermon on that day.

Everything is amazing to your dog. Another can of food? I don't believe it.
