"Darrell Taylor went from 37 snaps to 46 snaps, finishing with one tackle for a loss and one sack that mysteriously gave the Lions a free 15 yards. "

ROTFLMAO!!

If y'all didn't listen to/watch the Pete Carroll Show imbed in the post, go back and do it now. The part about how he intentionally teaches the men how to bounce-back from a loss is an awesome listen. It is the essence of why I love Pete as our coach for as long as he wants, then President of Pick-a-Title after that. He also honestly answers questions about the blown call(s) without criticizing the refs. He carefully phrases his outrage and concern as a legitimate question. It's a great technique for persuasive speaking that allows the person/people criticized to keep their dignity and self-evaluate without shutting down in defensiveness. It is one of the many useful things I learned in an honors public speaking course way back in college, and I love hearing Pete use it and other effective communication techniques that make him great at his job (and probably great at life).
