The fundamentals aren’t hard to master, but they’re called fundamentals for a reason. Learn them and thrive.
According to legend, Vince Lombardi started every training camp with this little gem, just to remind his players that no matter how great they were last season, it doesn’t mean squat this season. You guys wanna win again this year? Then we go back to the fundamentals -- blocking and tackling, running and throwing, practicing to perfection. The fundamentals aren’t sexy. They aren’t razzle-dazzle, but without them all you have is garnish. No meat, no potatoes. Just parsley and a couple of fruit slivers. And that ain’t much of a meal.
