There is one type of athlete that drives coaches up the wall. It's the athlete who seems to possess all the natural talent in the world but doesn't seem to care. When these athletes wish to, they give stellar performances. Even on off days, they are better than average. They break training rules, don't go full out in practice, and just have a bad attitude.
But they can flat out play – when they want to. These athletes are the "could have been greats" of the world. They appear to be mysteries but they are not. They all share a common trait. They are scared! Scared to see how good they can be. Their main crutch is their attitude. When they succeed, they do it with half effort. When they fail, they say a full effort was not made. Their greatest reward is not winning a team championship; it's getting attention for their "I do it my way" attitude.
Until next time,
