“If you can throw for 500 yards on somebody, you’re probably going to win the game. But if you can run for 500, you’re guaranteed to win the game and it takes their soul.”
- Rich Rodriguez
To Be An Offensive Lineman is To Understand Real Life:
10 Thoughts:
1) I was not an offensive lineman. I wished I had been.
2) I didn’t coach OL ( except once in high school in 1981-82… and it taught me more about football than anything since)
3) OL develop better/deeper/ lifetime friendships than any gang of humans I’ve seen in my 68 years of existence
4) Brotherhood can easily be defined in Webster’s Dictionary as : “See Offensive Lineman”
5) Want to learn complicated communication? Go To OL school
6) Want to learn how to Always Get The Blame and Never The Glory ( See OL Life)
7) Want to have a secret club where there’s a skillset and language that others can’t ever understand but your Gang of OL are fluent in (See OL)
8) Want to understand and appreciate food better than any cult in the history of mankind (See OL)
9) Want to get old and be surrounded by a gang of comrades who live in blissful nostalgia ( regardless of how bad life is) every time the old gang gets back together ( See OL)
10) And finally…Want to die with 5 humans that were beside u thru thick and thin, thru marriage and divorce, thru wealth and bankruptcy, thru fat and GLP1’s, Thru cancer and cure, thru birth and tragedy…Simply See OL…
I wish I had been good enough , big enough, smart enough, tough enough, unselfish enough, and ego-less to be the best…Because that would have made me an Offensive Lineman
Ready for it!! Working extremely hard this off season to be the best olinemen I possibly can be!
