Cheesy Football Jokes And A Pep Talk From Bill Walsh

What do you put in the N zone to stop

the other team from scoring? 

 A Scorecrow. 

Where do hungry football players play?
In the Supper Bowl.

 What did the football say to the punter?
"I get a kick out of you." 

 Why do coaches like punters?
Because punters always put 

their best foot forward.   

 What do you call a lineman's kids?
Chips off the old blocker.

What football player should you be suspicious of?
The quarterback sneak.

 The saga continues.

Why did the football coach go 
        to the bank? 

        A: To get his quarter back!

Q: How do football players stay cool during the game?
A: They stand close to the fans?
 

Which football team cooks gourmet meals together?
The Kansas City Chefs. 

Now, Bill Walsh, that's the coach of coaches. 

He wrote some very positive advice for teachers and everyone who works with kids. 

"Kids who take part in any sport get to feel the euphoria of victory, but they also learn how to deal with loss."

"Having to play a role determined by coaches, whether it is exactly what a player hopes for or not, teaches the acceptance of authority -- but not an automatic, robotic acceptance."

"Athletes have to also understand that anxiety is not a flaw, and that overcoming it is possible -- and sometimes a lot easier than they thought."

"The social elements of team sports have far-reaching effects. Team members develop the ability to communicate under stress. They learn to respect others whether they like them or not, and if a team is ethically coached, its members also are taught to respect their opponents no matter how fierce the rivalry."

Bill Walsh, one of the best ever coaches
