This reminds me of an old Shug Jordan story:

Shug Jordan began his career working for Bear Bryant as a scout. Shug said the first day of his job, he walked into Bear's office and Bear said, "Let me tell you the kind of guy we want. You know the guy who gets knocked down and stays down?"

"We don't want him, right?" asked Shug.

"Right. Then there's the guy who gets knocked down and gets back up again."

"Do we want him?" Shug asked.

"No. But then there's the guy who gets knocked down and gets back up and gets knocked back down and gets up again."

Shug nodded. "Okay, so it's that guy we want."

Bear shook his head. "No. I want you to find me the sumbitch that keeps knocking everybody down."

I was probably about 8 to 10 years old. The dog was a small to medium sized breed.

I was running home and decided to run between their house and another. Dog was sitting on a porch. As I ran past him, he jumped off the porch and latched onto my ass with his teeth. 

Held on for a few seconds too. When I kicked it into a higher gear, he let go and I ran home crying.

To top it all off, my mom got mad about it, called the neighbor over and pulled down my pants to show them the bite marks on my bare ass.

Not exactly the best day of my life...

Stop, I can't breathe.  Thanks for sharing that.

      J Person article on Canales and game plan and Rico

      By strato · Posted

      I think you know. Apparently winning is secondary to Bryce’s development. Same as it has been.     In a way it may be good because we didn’t need to make the playoffs and extend this fuging charade about Bryce being the guy. Better in the long run if he gets enough rope to hang himself with.

      Dave Canales is not the problem. He just isn't

      I know DC is overthinking this and he really needs to be OC or HC, but how do you call plays with a QB that in all reality, shouldn't be starting. Bryce is wildly inconsistent. He should lean on Rico and the run game, but if he does and wins, it presents a false narrative that Bryce is better than he is and he's potentially stuck with him for another season. If he doesn't, he looks incompetent as a play caller, but it exposes the ugly side of his QB situation that he really does need a QB that can execute at minimum a basic NFL offense with some decent consistency.  I feel a little sorry for the guy because he was anchored with Young this season and even more weight with Dalton getting a 2 year deal. He has very little to work with at the most important position on his team and it's not his doing. The trade deadline was approaching and it was plainly obvious we needed to do something but we didn't for whatever reason.  I don't think he's a complete bonehead and don't know what he's supposed to do. Win games and potentially keep Bryce or lose them by putting the weight on Bryce's shoulders. Either he succeeds or fails.  As a coach I know you're supposed to play to win the game, but do you win now at the ultimate long term detriment to your team and locker room?
