"Catfish, I think you were born with two hearts and two left feet"

After I tried my arse off to catch a state champion track guy that beat an angle I had on him near the line of scrimmage at the 20 yard line and chased him for 80 yards on a football field as he gained separation like I was standing still. I think he beat me to the endzone by 30 yards and I was still sprinting

Worst and funniest film session in my high school football career. Guy roasted me all night. I wasn't slow, but really average. This guy was blazzzzzzing. He rewinded and replayed it maybe 20 times.

Coach once told me the 2 most important letters in the alphabet are M & P.... and in that order.

M is for mental. Be prepared

P is for Physical. If you're prepared you won't have to think about the physical part because you will just do it without thinking.

"Never fully arrive"

It means to keep on going, once you "arrive" you get comfortable or complacent.

After sophomore season and missing a spring practice, “you need to decide if you want to chase women or play football.” My junior and senior years were glorious.

Wasn't said to me but overheard... Teammate went to Coach Johnson after practice and said his elbow was hurting. Coach Johnson replied, "Sugar, you're whippin your mule too hard."

Never forgot that wisdom...

If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don’t,
If you like to win, but don't you think you can
It is almost a certain you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost
For out of the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow’s will
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are
You’ve got to think high to rise,
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one WHO THINKS HE CAN!
