Coaches who have been players in the league, they get so attuned to playing how they were successful and who their coaches were.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Coaches are an integral part of any manager's team, especially if they are good pinochle players.
Many of the most successful coaches and managers have come from players who never reached the highest level. The one exception seems to be basketball, where many of the greatest stars at least tried to coach a team.
Look, coaching is about human interaction and trying to know your players. Any coach would tell you that. I'm no different.
Teaching players during practices was what coaching was all about to me.
The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.
People always get confused. They talk about coaches. The reality is, these coaches and managers that everybody thinks are in so much control, they work for us. They're our employees.
You notice it with any organization that's had a lot of success: you will start to reach thinking, 'That's the player, that's the method, that's the mechanism, that's the coach, that's the thing that's going to put us over the top.'
People usually think that it is the coach who has to raise the spirits of his players; that it is the coach who has to convince his footballers; that it is his job to take the lead all the time. But that's not always the case.
The best thing you can say about any coach is his players play hard for him.
Really the team often will take on the personality of its coach.
