At half time Reid said anyone going out to watch Rhianna would not play the rest of the SB and the Chiefs won. I guess it must have been pretty effective.

I mean, they are fun and part of the experience. Do they really matter? Let me put it to you like this....I bet many a coach has given an impassioned speech while losing or leading the Chiefs by a few points or before a playoff game or Super Bowl, only to see Mahomes use the sheet the speech was written on as a shot rag.

They should bring Al pachino in and recreate the scent of a woman court scene

I was really motivated pre-thread when I read the title but lost all motivation at the halfway point going through all the choices.

I’m not a rah rah kind of guy so they never did anything for me.

I know it’s effective for others, though, so more power to ‘em.

I said minorly.

I've had rah-rah yelling bosses and it just doesn't do it for me at all... if anything, I'll probably laugh at the outburst.

I'd be at least somewhat motivated by stuff that went beyond cliches.... mentioning we can take advantage of a weakness or little reminders to get everyone focused.

And I have no idea how coaches do it, game after game and year after year, especially on a team that's been there and done that. Of course, there are always new faces and young kids to coach up, but keeping the energy high during the dog days of the regular season (well, September through late December) would be tough.

Not effective. It's tired, made up shit. If I'm not already motivated for real reasons, some words from a jackass won't help
