My dear coach. To protest with such vigor and constancy reveals much of your game plan. There's 30 seconds left, you're down 5 points and your star forward just went down hard on a cameraman whose lens, to his great misfortune, was intended to photographs gnats at great distances. The team is shaken, morale is low and devolving right in front of your eyes. They look to you for strength, for guidance, for the last adrenal push to compel them to do more, better, than they have ever done before. Any you, knowing in your heart of hearts that they cannot produce, have never produced, must still be strong, must somehow convince them and yourself that they can do the impossible. If not for the hope of winning, then at least for the hope of ending the day with their valor intact. To say that they went out fighting, striving, to the last. So you muster your firmest voice, and in simple language that will be heard over the hormones, you demand that which you can never have, over and over until you think the message might somehow find its way into the very soul of your players. And then you sit back, exhausted from the effort, close your eyes, and pray for a miracle. For you may have performed the finest moment of enthusiastic encouragement of your career, but 30 second from now reality will happen, whether you want it to or not. And then... SHG
