A few quotes from legendary College Football coach Lou Holtz:
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Coaching is nothing more than eliminating mistakes before you get fired.
Do right. Do your best. Treat others as you want to be treated.
Don't be a spectator, don't let life pass you by.
How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser.
I never learn anything talking. I only learn things when I ask questions.
I think everyone should experience defeat at least once during their career. You learn a lot from it.
If what you did yesterday seems big, you haven't done anything today.
If you burn your neighbors house down, it doesn't make your house look any better.
If you try to fight the course, it will beat you.
If you're bored with life - you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things - you don't have enough goals.
In the successful organization, no detail is too small to escape close attention.
It is a fine thing to have ability, but the ability to discover ability in others is the true test.
It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.
Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.
Motivation is simple. You eliminate those who are not motivated.
No one has ever drowned in sweat.
On this team, we're all united in a common goal: to keep my job.
Show me someone who has done something worthwhile, and I'll show you someone who has overcome adversity.
The man who complains about the way the ball bounces is likely the one who dropped it.
The problem with having a sense of humor is often that people you use it on aren't in a very good mood.
When all is said and done, more is said than done.
You'll never get ahead of anyone as long as you try to get even with him.
You're never as good as everyone tells you when you win, and you're never as bad as they say when you lose.
About Me
- Cassini
- I have had a life-long interest in sports and after studying Pure Mathematics with Statistics at secondary school, have been fascinated by odds and probability. The first system I came up with was a simple one - back the favourite and double up after a loss until a winner. Simple enough in theory, and I told my Dad about it. Not being a betting man himself, he ran it by some of his colleagues, and came home to tell me that it wouldn’t work because a long losing run would mean that the bank would be empty. Then there was always the possibility that the winner would be returned at odds-on, meaning that the total returns would not match the outlay. Not what a ten year old wants to hear! Only slightly daunted, I then went on a search for the Holy Grail, the secret to riches that I knew was out there somewhere. Finally in 2004 I stumbled across an article about Betting Exchanges and four years later I was able to make a steady profit.
