what are your favorite high school coach quotes?

[datasuspect]

mine are:

"get tough!"

"walk it off!"

[Rambis]

1. "you have to do the "lil" things"

Only the strong survive! Dazed and confused

Our b-ball coach used to give us the game plan while taking a dump!

2. There is no "I" in "team"

[quip]

5. I always wanted to reply:

3. I didn't play sports in high school, but my college rowing coach(es)

had some interesting/entertaining things to say. :D Like when Coach #1 was driving the wakeless launch (I was riding in it with him b/c we had an odd number of people that day), and after taking a sip from his Nalgene bottle, said something to the effect of: "Alcohol is my life." :scared: I'm pretty sure he was kidding, but you never knew with him. :shrug: And then the next year, when we got a second coach, they both lectured me about not wearing a jacket one morning when it was really cold - a conversation that entertained me so much I put it up as an away message on AIM:

Coach #1: That's how Beethoven died, you know.
Coach #2: Yeah, he went rowing in a t-shirt.
Coach #1 (in mock annoyance, to Coach #2): NO, ______...(to me, speaking normally) He rode in a carriage in the middle of winter. His friends told him not to, but he wouldn't listen...being deaf and all.

:silly: I miss those goofballs. :D

[Beer Snob-50]

Only nervous sweat smells." -- My coach.

And I into a huge argument with my father based on this.

14. "Men, You might be sitting there dreaming of Little Susie Rottencrotch but we've got

21. Don't kick it to (name)!!!!

I heard this the whole week of our big rivalry game. It never dawned on me to ask what (name)'s number was ...until I got out on the field in a deafening roar. He was number 9.

I guess I shouldn't have skipped films (with the Center and DT) to go watch the field hockey team afterall :evilgrin:

[Oeditpus Rex]

22. 'It was a team effort'

"We really came together and played as a team."

"We've got to step it up and raise our effort to the next level."
