Exactly. I didn't feel like typing all of that in my original post but that is pretty much where I was headed. Maybe the op is one of those type A self motivated, highly focused individuals, but you have to understand everyone isn't built like you.It's not an excuse...it's reality. Everybody isn't a self-starter. Everybody doesn't hold themselves accountable. You have slackers or guys who do just enough to get by in every other profession...sports in no exception. I agree with your assertion about people getting propped up as leaders purely because they were fortunate to be in the right situation. But there is no denying that leadership is important. Obviously you need talent but leadership can be the difference between underachieving with talent and meeting your potential. Likewise it can be the difference between a team overachieving or just being what we thought they were.
I serve 3&1/2 years in the Army. So plz don't compare sports to the armed forces. I'm talking pro athletes that quit on coaches & other players because they didn't motivate them or lead them#WPOY
If you've ever had an actual job, or served in the military, or have any kind of basic adult social interaction in any kind of organization, then you know that grown men leading other grown men is the norm.
must be something in the molly water because I've seen some of the most god awful threads the past couple of days on heredon't understand human beings, brehs
Terrell OwensAlso Organization is the key in large groups, everybody said fukk it I'm gonna do what I do, it would be impossible the group to function has ONE


Why not? Just because the stakes may be higher it doesn't negate the need for leadership. Players will quit on coaches the same way students will quit on teachers, employees will quit on bosses, and soldiers will quit on commanding officers.I serve 3&1/2 years in the Army.
