Great article! We kick off our season tonight against our cross town rival of the last 50 years so this will be a nice read to show our guys to give them some extra motivation for battling in the trenches tonight.

#4 is definitely the most accurate.
I'll never understand egotistical WR's or RB's who won't block for their teammates. We're playing a very talented team this week that just lost to a team with no seniors and one junior 45-24. These guys have 7 guys who were chosen as preseason all-St. Louis kids and they gave no effort whatsoever. These two twins they have starting at WR/CB were extremely athletic, but had the worst attitude I'd ever seen. They couldn't run the ball all night on a defense where the biggest guy was 190 pounds (their OL averages about 280) because they wouldn't block. They wouldn't even get out of their stance. They took a step and stood there. Not to mention that their 150 pound sophomore QB rushed for 300 yards on scrambles because they wouldn't tackle.
An unselfish culture is what breeds success. A well-coached, unselfish offensive line can set a tone for the entire team. I've always believed the best offenses and defenses are built from the ground up

There is no more important group of guys on the field. I really like our top 8 this year. They all embrace it and want to be good at it.

A buddy of mine coaches back home, and on Friday nights they load the buses and go eat at a local restaurant that closes down to feed the team on game night.
The OL gets to load the buses first at the school, and the OL gets to eat first when they get there.
Everything starts up front.
