“John, you’re a serial penny pincher, you destroyed your family’s great name and legacy because of your cheapness…I can go call 3 billionaires right now that will buy the team!” -@LarryBeilABC7
A’s are pushing the boundary between sadness and anger. We say feel your anger today but don’t let it and the A’s get the best of you tomorrow or any of the remaining 3 games. #FJF
TOP GUN was released 38 years ago today. One of the definitive 1980s action films, and among the most popular of its star, Tom Cruise, the story behind the scenes will take your breath away…

For most of us the Oakland Coliseum was a sanctuary amid life’s chaos. It was a place where life’s craziness would simply fade away.
No matter what was going on knew we always had a place to escape to.
We could get away from the daily grind and know we could always find refuge within the magical confines of the Coliseum.
The internal solace one receives simply by saying…
“I’d rather be at the Oakland Coliseum”.

The #1 reason a team has a strong culture with high standards is because the staff clearly and effectively models the standards they want to exist for the culture they want to create.
People observe and follow the actions of leaders more than words of leaders.
Skin in the game.
This is the most tired gripe in the analyst’s playbook. I never blamed a youth/HS coach for not teaching my receivers proper footwork or my qbs how to go through progressions. Do you blame your coaches at UNI for you not getting drafted? Seemed to work out in the end.
I know many of you LOVE college football, but as I start to dive into these college QBs, it’s hard for me to even watch: very few play on schedule, the pass concepts are a mess most of the time, they run the same play over & over, a million bubble screens, can’t find many concepts that translate to next level… and then ppl are asked to figure out how good they will be at next level!? (Nearly impossible in my mind)
For me CJ Stroud is a great example - obviously really good in college & OSU runs more pro-style concepts than most but they didn’t ask him to process & get ball out as quickly as he did last year in HOU - so I had no idea he would be so good at processing so fast! He’s better in NFL than what we got to see in college, but many times you just don’t know until you know!
@chriscfore Another example of coaches “going Hollywood”. Too many see it on the big screen and think they can do it in real life. I would tell my coaches, “you’re not in Remember the Titans so stop acting like it!”
