Lies new coaches tell
Let's say you are hired as the new coach for some kind of sports team. What do you tell the press to give fans hope that the team will improve under your leadership? You can't slag the players because they have to play for you, and it's discourteous to slag the previous coach. One day you'll be the previous coach and you don't want people talking you down when they replace you. There seems to be one thing you can say that's politically correct in the culture of coaching, and that is that you will improve strength and conditioning. Every new coach talks about how he's putting in a new strength and conditioning program that will make everything better. The sad thing is, until recently I actually believed it.
