Warren Buffett: "[Gambling] is a tax on stupidity."

"Rich people love [legalized gambling] because they don't have to pay. To the extent that states raise money from people who the dollar really means something to them, it actually relieves the taxes on me or other rich people. It's not direct, but it's the net effect."

"I don't like things that make a sucker out of people. I don't think the function of the government is to play its people for suckers."

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

Nick Saban shares one of the best definitions of discipline and the two questions that determine your success.

"Discipline defined: Do what you're supposed to do, when you're supposed to do it, the way it's supposed to get done."

"Do the right thing, the right way, the right time, all the time."

Then he talks about self-discipline and the two questions to ask yourself:
"But I'm talking about self-discipline."

"We answer hundreds of questions every day that come down to these 2 things."

(1) "Here's something I know I'm supposed to do that I really don't want to do. Can you make yourself do it?"
(2) "And then over here - there's something you know you're not supposed to do, but you want to do it. Can you keep yourself from it?"

The willpower battle that you fight every day.

Self-discipline is choosing what you need over what you want in this moment..

"But we're talking about feeling versus choice."

"You're gonna do what you feel like doing or you're gonna choose to do the things you need to do to be successful. And there's a difference in that."

To achieve your goals, you need to choose daily discipline over motivation.

It means prioritizing your goals and what you want for the temporary discomfort of today.

° 1976 NFC CHAMPIONSHIP °

(narrated by Pat Summerall and Dick Enberg)

Momentum-swinging special teams plays and takeaways by Bobby Bryant, and @ChuckForeman's 199 scrimmage yards help lift the #Vikings over the #Rams at The Met, 24-13.

Minnesota becomes the first team in history to qualify for a fourth Super Bowl appearance. #Skol   

Rams great Merlin Olsen plays his final NFL game.

° 1977 NFC DIVISIONAL °

~ "THE MUD BOWL" ~

An all-time foul-weather postseason contest

Three #Vikings takeaways and a prolific Southern California monsoon — the great equalizer — stymie the heavily-favored #Rams in a quagmire at the L.A. Coliseum, 14-7.

Joe Namath's Final Touchdown Pass

In his thirteenth pro season, quarterback Joe Namath collects his first win for a team other than the #Jets — an impressive 20-0 #Rams victory over the Eagles in Los Angeles.

Namath throws two touchdowns — his second (and final one of his career) on a sweet double play-fake dime to Lawrence McCutcheon.

Don Criqui and Emerson Boozer — Joe's former longtime backfield mate in New York — on the call for CBS Sports.

September 10, 1978

In this segment from CBS's "The #NFL Today" halftime show, Jayne Kennedy throws it to Irv Cross for his feature on the drastic 1978 rules changes two weeks into the young season.

#Dolphins head coach Don Shula explains the new blocking rules for offensive linemen.

Then Irv — a former Pro Bowl cornerback — discusses (and hilariously demonstrates) the new rules for defending receivers with #Eagles future Hall of Fame wideout Harold Carmichael.

"The NFL Today" Pregame Show
September 2, 1979

The first Sunday of the #NFL's 60th season kicks off with the league's preeminent studio show, featuring CBS Sports' Brent Musburger, Jayne Kennedy, Irv Cross, and Jimmy "The Greek".

As start times for the early games were still staggered in that era, some games are already in-progress.

• Brent recaps the previous night's contest between the #Buccaneers and Lions
• A "Remote Reports" stadium whip-around segment follows, with color analysts Tom Brookshier, Paul Hornung, and Johnny Morris
• Jayne has a feature on the #DallasCowboys' Ed "Too Tall" Jones, who had (temporarily) retired to pursue a boxing career
• Irv covers the recent blockbuster Oilers-Patriots trade involving All-Pro tackle Leon Gray
• "The Greek" makes his picks for the day's games and offers his prognostications for the upcoming season
