Well, here is what a great Coach Vince Lombardi says so he must have thought different from your views, maybe that is why I like him so much: "There's a great----a great closeness on a football team, a rapport between men and the Coach that is like no other sport. It's binding together, a knitting together. For me, it's like father and sons.....I missed players coming up to me and saying, "Coach, I need some help because my baby's sick," or "Mr. Lombardi, I want to talk to you about trouble I'm having at home."
And, here is what he says about his infamous saying "Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing" -- "I wish to **** I'd never said the ****ed thing, I meant the effort.. I meant having a goal... I sure as **** didn't mean for people to crush human values and morality. So, I will continue to believe as a Head Coach you have a commitment to your players to lead them by example, to care for them, and to teach them life lessons to prepare them for the realities of the days when High School is over. Thanks for letting me have a say on here.
