I had one coach who had been shot through both legs in Vietnam.
Oh, boy.
And he didn't tolerate much.
He really didn't tolerate much.
He's seeing a deficiency in your performance.
I think, I don't know, I was coachable.
I could receive a lesson.
I might not like it.
I didn't like to be shamed and I didn't like to be embarrassed.
Nobody does.
But...
The coaches were pretty good about spreading it around.
Everybody was going to get theirs at some point, right?
I hated the days when it was my turn.
But okay, if I screwed up – but it also made me – as a young person, your mind drifts.
Some of those lessons are boring when they're running through plays or whatever.
It's hard to stay focused all the time.
But you get yelled at enough by either a sergeant instructor or a coach –
Your focus goes up a little bit.
You pay a little more attention.
