Leadership Lesson

We are reaping the benefits of an ongoing seminar on Strong Leadership by Professor Jim Haslett. Seems like many times changing a coach or manager ends up not making a difference or making a very marginal difference in a team's performance. I was expecting some difference from the Rams just from being aware of Haslett's Saints' teams performances, but I'd be a liar if I tried to tell you I saw this big of a change coming. I'm already repeating myself, but once again, Hats off to Haslett for turning the situation around so quickly and completely! I know there's a lot of season left, and some top notch opponents still on the schedule, but I feel we have a fighting chance to give anyone of those teams all the tussle they can handle, if not more than they can handle. I'm for getting Haslett on board with a long-term contract and Soon! Go Rams!

Haslett

Here's A big Thank you to Skip Rosenbloom and Coach Haslett. In a way it galls me that Linehan had to be fired, because he dealt with people much like I do, but its apparent that most times, being a nice guy doesnt get it done as a NFL coach, with Tony Dungy being a notable exception. At any rate, I feel like the Rams have a chance on most Sundays now, and we all know that if those players arent giving their all on every play, Haslett will be kicking their butts. Apparently he's been getting his message across. What a statement to win todays game on a last minute drive, when they have been rolling over and giving up in the 4th quarter!
