Ted Lasso, John Wooden, Pat Summit- A Great Clinic

Part I
I always love a great clinic, the opportunity to learn from the best coaches in the sport. Ted Lasso doesn't do a lot with X/O's, but he deals with the MORE important things- team work, goal setting, handling success, handling adversity, and so much more. 

I am taking some of Ted Lasso's great quotes, and matching them up with quotes from some of the greats in sports. It is quickly evident that Ted Lasso totally understands how to be a great coach!!





Ted Lasso
- I do love a locker room. It smells like potential.

Pat Summit- Teamwork is what makes common people capable of uncommon results.



Ted Lasso
- I think that you might be so sure that you're one in a million, that sometimes you forget that out there you're just one in 11.

Pat Riley- Being part of success is more important than being personally indispensable.



Ted Lasso
- Your body is like day-old rice. If it ain't warmed up properly, something really bad could happen. 

Mark Twain- Whenever I feel the urge to exercise, I lay down until the feeling passes. 



Ted Lasso
- If God would have wanted games to end in a tie, she wouldn't have invented numbers. 

Vince Lombardi- Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing. 




Ted Lasso
- Success is not about wins and losses. It's about helping these young fellows be the best versions of themselves, on and off the field.

John WoodenSuccess is peace of mind that is the direct result of self-satisfaction in knowing you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming.



Ted Lasso
- The harder you work, the luckier you get.

Vince Lombardi- The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender. 



Ted Lasso
- We're gonna call this drill "The Exorcist" cause it's all about controlling possession. 

Bob Knight- Victory favors the team making the fewest mistakes.  




Ted Lasso
- You two knuckleheads have split our locker room in half. And when it comes to locker rooms, I like 'em just like my mother's bathing suits. I only wanna see 'em in one piece, you hear?

Pat Summit- Teamwork really is a a form of trust. Teamwork is a lot like being part of a family. It comes with obligations, entanglements, headaches, and quarrels. The rewards are worth the cost. 



Ted Lasso
- We all know speed is important. But being able to stop and change directions quickly? Well, that's like Kanye's 808's and Heartbreak. It don't get nearly enough credit. 

John Wooden- Be quick but don't hurry.



Ted Lasso
- Boy, I love meeting people's moms. It's like reading an instruction manual as to why they're nuts. 

Eric Berne (Psychologist)- People are born princes and princesses until society makes them into frogs.
