*Jameis Winston's School of Motivational Speech!! *

[Kontradiction]

Link: LOOK: Jameis Winston comes off sideline to instigate a fight after getting pulled

He's a punk. He's always been a punk. He's also highly overrated and all that talk about his football IQ prior to his draft was a joke. Anyone worth their weight in salt would be able to guide a team with that kind of talent to better than a 2-6 record and five straight losses.

 

[Off The Grid]

Honestly, he looks like he's cookin' or somethin'. The look in'is eyes before he starts munchin' on'is fingers is intensely disturbing ~ he looks like he is sky high.

And considering what followed...would you bet otherwise?

A couple'f side thoughts occur to me...

01 ~ The Ray Lewis kind of "Leadership" is vastly overrated. Men who've got the chops to advance to the highest level of competition ~ and men and women in general ~ don't need some jamoke shouting at them and "motivating" them. The only real motivation is self motivation. If the satisfaction of doing a job well doesn't inspire me, some donkey yelling rah rah at me isn't gonna make any lasting difference. Real Leadership is Communication, as should be evident to anyone who's followed Mad Bill.

02 ~ It's easy to imagine that all QuarterBacks are naturally given to Leadership ~ to communicating the Game Plan and reinforcing their availability for questions and direction and such ~ but'f course most'f'm just become QuarterBacks because'f their Arms. Contextually, that makes it a bit unfair on Winston and others.

If Winston had read TFB's book he would've realized that W's cause severe inflammation.

I’m just talking about his corny as hell “inspirational” pre-game speeches, which we saw some prime examples of here, in college, and during the airing of Hard Knocks.

He was the best choice at QB that draft and he has some good raw talent, but I think he needs to work on his maturity and football intelligence. One good example of not having good on the field IQ is the fact that he threw the ball short of the end zone during the last ditch heave in the Pats game. There have been numerous other examples.

It’s good to see him coming around with some improved leadership like you said, (sans this specific speech, I guess), but he’s still got a long way to go in my opinion.

His pregame stuff is no worse than ray Lewis and Lewis is applauded for it.
Neither mean much of anything

Dude! That was worse. A lot worse.

But I agree it doesn't mean much.

Ray Lewis danced into the field

Don't you dare start a subjective argument about what is or isn't good hoo rah rah.

I smell 80 pages coming....

I smell 80 pages coming....

I'm game because it's about honor, it's about respect. And after I win I will honored... my kids will be honored.

Are you wearing a white suit?

 

[dtbrks]

I thought he just had some good fried chicken or something. finger licking good

 

[Tony2046]

Are you wearing a white suit?

I used to never own a supposed "white suit".

 

[IcyPatriot]

I think he chews on suppositories before the game.

 

[jah]

Whats the excuse for him being nothing but a bust so far?

WR’s? Check.
TE? Check.
Running game? Check.
O-line? I really dont know the pieces but its not like he is being killed every game so I take this for an average NFL line.

This is the first I've heard of Winston being "nothing but a bust."

I remember as a kid, I read a biography on Bart Star and one passage always stuck me. He mentioned that when a linemen missed an assignment and let up a sack, he would not yell or scream at him but rather just look at the player.

Bart Star mentioned that a leader does not need to yell but rather can do so just with a glance.

…after he killed a guy (or two).

Not a bust yet but very inconsistent. He has the talent and has beaten top line defenses but throws up stinkers the next week. But I don't watch him every week so tough to tell.
