It’s apparent that every head coach the first day on the job is handed a thin booklet entitled “ Coach Speak “

This is required reading and contains every trite saying that has been used since the beginning of team sports

As fans we have been continuously exposed to the materiel in the booklet. since we began following sports

These sayings are splashed in bold headlines declaring that Coach Jones says that opponent has the best QB ever , the best defense of all time

Take Those ridiculous 20 sec. takes as the harried head coach is running off of the field at half time and a shapely young sideline reporter thrusts a microphone in his face to ask “ Coach , what do you think of your defense so far “
the coach responds “ We just have to tackle better” then dashes off leaving the audience to say “ now that was very enlightening “
