"Your best players need to show up at the most important times. If they don't, you might as well go home!" -- Taken from Coach Berenson and used frequently with my teams.
"You freaking kiddin' me!!" -- Said when I think something is not believable or is pretty weird.
"We'll be seeing ya."-- Usually followed by "Yes, we will" taken from my friend, Hilts."
For it isn't your father or mother or wife
Whose judgement upon you must pass,
The fellow whose verdict counts most in you life
Is the one staring back from the glass.
You might be like Jack Horner and chisel a plum
And think you're a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says "You're only a Bum"
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
"He's the fellow to please- never mind all the rest,
For he's with you clear to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test.
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you've cheated the man in the glass."
