CoT today to keep with the football theme is from Lou Holtz

“Ability is what you are capable of doing, Motivation determines what you do, Attitude determines how well you do it.”

  • Lou Holtz

All the natural ability in the world doesnt mean a thing if you are unmotivated and procrastinate. But beyond that, your attitude will determine the quality of your work. If you do something with a negative attitude, you will not perform to the extent of your natural abilities. If you are unmotivated, it shows in the quality of your work and your effort.

Dont just coast by in life on your ability . . . it takes motivation and a positive attitude to truly excel. Master all three and you are already ahead of 99.9% of everyone else. So go out and start applying this in all aspects of your life.

Random Musings and observations from this morning

  • Do NOT underestimate Speaker City! This HIM was kicking ass and taking names, and is WAY faster than he says.
  • Tang was the fastest at the 40 yard dash 5.37 sec
  • Speaker city was second at 5.65
  • Encryption key was third at 5.70
  • Sun Devil was fourth at 5.75
  • Glass joe was 15th at 6.27
  • BENCH PRESS
  • To no surprise . .  Encryption Key was first at 67 reps
  • Sparky was second at 50 reps
  • Overthrow and and Tent sale tied for third at 40 reps
  • Sundevil was 5th at 33 reps
  • BROAD JUMP
  • Tent sale was first at 8 feet 1 inch!
  • Overthrow was second at 7 feet 11 inches!
  • Sun Devil was third at 7 feet 8 inches!
  • Vertical Jump
  • Sun Devil was first at 29 inches!
  • Tent Sale and Overthrow tied for second at 23 inches!
  • Encryption Key was third at 21 inches!
  • Three Cone Drill
  • (some of these rubbed off . . . but I could still see Glass Joe’s. No scores recorded for Nosejob, Sparky or radio Flyer.)
  • Mia Hamm was first at 9.13!
  • At At second at 9.20! (very questionable timing on this one . . . . under review)
  • Tang third at 9.24!

 

Definitely a fun time had by all . . . and the smack talking was in full effect.

  • Trying to guard Tang in ultimate football is like trying to guard a freaking antelope.
  • Overthrow can throw the ball really far
  • Sun devil and I cannot.
  • Dabo is very good at ultimate football.
  • Sparky is strong like bull
  • Cannoli has the most unique stance to start sprinting I have ever seen . .  and it works.
  • tent sale was beasting all morning . . . top draft pick here for tomorrow!
  • Mia hamm is a natural athlete running around.
  • I am not.
  • At at is a cherry picker.
  • A lot of guys do not know what “man to man coverage” is
  • Speaker city is fast on go routes
  • Most guys dont know what a “go route” is
  • Glass Joe rivals Nacho Libre in the mumblechatter department. And its awesome.
  • If Encryption key is guarding you . . . just give up. That cat is FAST.
  • I am blaming all the drops this morning on the moistness . . . so so moist this morning.
  • radio flyer is a crafty football player . . . and his help timing people today was invaluable.
  • Riunite is sneaky sneaky good at all aspects of the combine. Not top three in any category, but just missing.
  • Persian Kitten and Overthrow are biological brothers.
  • Cable Guy needs better gloves
  • Why does cannoli only post when we play football?!?!?!?
  • Atat wears more armor and pads than a medieval knight. Yet it doesnt slow him down.
