Tell me what you think.....

I coach Pop Warner Football (the Panthers- WOOT) and I am getting my things together for this season.

As much time as I spend on this Pop Warner Team I can only imagine what Fox is doing.

Anyways, I am preparing my 1st speech to my team. I want this to be me footprint for myself throughout my coaching career.

This is only my 2nd season, so I feel I need a foundation for my own expectations...

Tell me what you think...

"To the players";

I will only promise you 3 things this season....

#1- I promise I will make you mad at me.

I believe in hard work. Win or lose I will not let you fail and I will not let you quit. I will push you to do your best, you deserve that.

#2- I promise to make you better.

No matter what you think of yourself, I believe in you. You would not be on this team if you didn't have courage, I will get that out of you. I promise you your hard work will pay off. You will be a better player after this season.

#3- I promise to give you my best.

With that said, I expect your best. We are a team, you are only as good as the guy beside you. Win or lose I will give you my best and I expect the same. If we do our best and give 100% thats all we need.

You should make promise #4.

Promise although they will work hard, they will have fun. Because after all, they are kids and that is ultimately what it is all about. Should be the most important thing on the list IMO.

Good Luck and make sure you have fun also!

Ya emphasize having fun over everything else.

how old are the kids ?

    • Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.  
    • As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
