One of Justin's favorite quotes is:"Maybe I led you to believe it was easy when it wasnt
That my game was built on flash not fire
Maybe it's my fault that you didnt see that failure gave me strength, that my pain was my modivation
Maybe I led you to believe that football is a god given gift and not something I worked for...every single day of my life.
Maybe i ruined that game for you...or maybe, maybe your just making excuses.
Hard work always beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard.
The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.
Most football players are temperamental. That's ninety percent temper and ten percent mental.
Whatever the score is, I'm going to run as hard as I can on every play. -Walter Payton
Why is there only one ball for 22 players? If you gave a ball to each of them, they'd stop fighting for it.
Sports don't build character they reveal it.
Hands can't hit what the eyes can't see, float like a butter fly sting like a bee
"Winning is not a sometime thing, its an all the time thing. You dont win once in a while, you dont do things right once in a while, you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit unfortunately so is losing (Vince Lombardi).....
"if you are a true winner your a winner all the time, but not only in sport but in all aspects of your life. In orde...Expand for more
r to be a real winner you must work hard and put in an effort, push yourself beyond your mental limit. Having mental toughness allows you to be a winner. This is because if u have mental toughness, the physical toughness will take care of itself. This can apply to our team and our personal lives because if you become a true winner, you will go further in life. If you are always trying to be a winner, you cannot lose." - Justin Scott Wagner.
"You find out that life is just a game of inches.
So is football. Because in either game life or football the margin for error is so small. I mean one half step too late or to early you don't quite make it. One half second too slow or too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They are in ever break of the game every minute, every second. I'll tell you this in any fight it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch. And I know if I am going to have any life anymore it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch because that is what LIVING is. The six inches in front of your face.
Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.-Muhammad Ali
Don't listen to the naysayer. I had plenty of those. Don't listen to those that will judge you for your rough edges. Don't focus on your weakness so you won't become a victim. Find the goodness in you that says, Yes, I can be a good student. Yes, I can be a good son and daughter. Yes, I can be a positive role model. Yes, I can, because the good in you is better than the worst in most. The choice is yours. Be the best that you can be.
I truly believe that none of us is anything until the least of us is something. -Floyd Little".
