    Good leaders analyze and address the negatives while reinforcing the positives. You can't get better by ignoring the areas where you fell short. How do you not know that?

    Confused? About what? Will you answer or provide a cryptic post?

    Good leaders spend most of the time....leading, encouraging. Critics have nothing to offer other than criticism. In other words, critics don't do!

    Ever led a team of players, or employees? I have. Lots of personalities....some multiple.

    I am actually confused by your take on this. Do you actually believe that negatives and deficiencies of any one player or group of players should not be addressed by coaches? In order for each personnel group to get better? I get that dwelling on the past too much is counterproductive but pointing out an area where a team can get better from year to year is not. And yes, I am a leader of grown ass men.

    I’m pretty sure that was the intent. If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance baffle them with bull.

    You're confused on my take? That's rich! I fully understand what means to listen to a coach reprimand or encourage me. The only way a coach continues is because you continue repeating the same miscues.

    As far as dwelling on the past, I responded to a poster, who said he's a fan, talk about something that happened NINE MONTHS AGO during the 1st 8 games of the season!! The Steelers were certainly not playing well. But in the last 10 games they went 7-3. Tell me why it was necessary for the guy to post about ancient history? What does it solve? Is he a Steeler coach or a nobody like me?

    Metalman, I have no idea what you do for a living. Nor have I asked. Good for you if you lead people. Your point would be....what?

    Nothing was said by me regarding any of YOUR confusion. Yet you mention I was confused?

    FYI, I too was a GM, VP and President of a few companies each generating $1Bio+ in yearly revs. As an aside, I also played 4 years of college ball. Now that the gorilla grunts are over, maybe you could explain my confusion in big-boy words? Are you suggesting I don't know football?

    Who decided to first talk about their business experience, you or me? I'll take the former? Have a nice day.

    Seriously, I never thought my post would be so controversial(post 136 and 138)...He doesn't even know me since he's new on this forum and all he did was to have a fight with me for nothing and say that I have an inability to talk football in post 166! :facepalm:

    I understand that sometimes I'm a little too hard on Tomlin and Canada, but I'm sure many are worse than me, not just on this forum but elsewhere and I've been more careful lately

    I asked you a question you either can't, or won't answer. Not trying to be difficult. Just asking questions even a moron could answer. That you can't/won't means.......?

    Your point IS controversial for those who played the game. Of course this usually happens when someone's mouth writes checks their butt can't cover.

    You say I want a fight with you? LOL! You have no idea what a fight is. Oh, and you do have an inability to talk football if you think bringing up things that happened in the 1st 8 games of LAST season is somehow meaningful today.

    First, I have no need to provide my initials or a fake ID to post on a message board. I use my real name. No fear in that. If you want to discuss childish expressions, I suggest you look in the mirror FIRST.

    A reprimand? Banishment? All because I took issue with a stat from the 1st 8 games of LAST YEAR? This is evidence that you're a Steeler fan? God! What in the world will you do if a discussion breaks out about Route Trees or Man Coverage? Perish the thought.

    Hey, Bud. I entered this board seeking some reasonable football debate regarding the Steelers. Not interested to trod on trampled ground talking about stats from 9 months age not even germane to anything recent... it's ancient history. Now I'm the bad guy for taking issue? Sorry, not gonna happen. I grew up in Pittsburgh and have been a Steeler fan all my life. Got the chance to have my college education paid by playing football. The last thing I choose to do would be to insult the game or the team. Maybe I'm not good enough to be a current Steeler "fan"?
