If youre going to be sexy in a photo, youd better be thinking about sex rather than about being sexy.
Number three, we're going to play very smart and we're not going to beat ourselves. If the other team is better than us and they just out execute us and play better then we can live with that, but we're going to play smart and give ourselves every opportunity to win the game.
The most important rule is to play great defense, not great offense. Everyday I assume every position I have is wrong. I know where my stop risk points are going to be. I do that so I can define my maximum drawdown. Hopefully, I spend the rest of the day enjoying positions that are going in my direction. If they are going against me, then I have a game plan for getting out.
Technique is the basis of every pursuit. If youre a sportsman or youre a singer or a swimmer, well that comes under sport but you have to develop a basic technique to know what youre doing at any given time.
I'll know that when I play a good game, a decent game, and I know when I can play a lot better and aggressive, when I can take over a game myself.
You get into the game and you know you're probably not going to be in there long. It's like, while I'm in here, I better not mess up. That's the completely wrong mentality to have. That works against how I play because how I play is 150 percent, going all out, going crazy.
You've got to play every game until it's over. Baseball is a funny game, so you never know what's going to happen.
Generally, you're going into every game with excitement. You know you're going to play forward and not going to defend. You're going to try to create and score goals.
When youre in that scene, you really wonder if this is all youre ever going to be. You know how vile and filthy you are inside.
You know you're going to have 162 games. You're going to have six months to play this game and playing every day is going to be a grind.
Elation and pain are experiences that make you realize youre alive. Thank God you feel them; otherwise youd be numb.
Nature set a limit on sleep - as it did on eating and drinking. And youre over the limit. But not of working. There youre still below your quota. You dont love yourself enough. Or youd love your nature too and what it demands of you. People who love what they do wear themselves down doing it. They even forget to wash and eat.
We're just going to come out and play. We know that we're supposed to win all the games, but if we don't, we just have to take the next game and focus on what we did wrong in the game before and just try to do better at the next game.
Number two, we're going to play with a lot of effort. Our guys are going to be in such good shape that fatigue is not going to be a problem. We're going to play with full effort from snap to whistle on every play the entire game.
