Brandon Nimmo says playing in Texas helped him see how completely different it is compared to playing in New York "It's twofold. You do really well there, it's awesome. It's a double-edged sword. You do poorly, just be ready to own up to it and admit you did poorly"

Miss that guy. But it allowed Benge and Ewing to play every day.

Ryan21 days ago

It would be nice to have a guy like Brandon in the SNY booth one day

John R Pellegrino21 days ago

What a classy guy. We miss him greatly.

Mike's MMA Picks21 days ago

As honest as it gets. He should still be wearing blue and orange.

Robert Morici21 days ago

Love Nimmo, wish Stearns never traded him

Rohger21 days ago

Hopefully the POBO is listening to this before he thinks he can just punch some player’s numbers into his spreadsheet and think they’ll perform the same in NY.

Realest answer ever, it is NOT for everyone

@SNYtv Excellent interview Brandon said what I have said all year NY not for everyone if you look at this yrs group for Mets / Yankees the guys who previously played in NY succeed the others struggled

Who cares?

So, how do we as fans make it easier? Would love to be an asset rather than contribute to the wear.

dilemma21 days ago

Trading him and not resigning Alonso were the two dumbass moves that changed the entire vibe of this team. Two homegrown Mets that could perform in NY, were leaders, and were well liked by fans. Stearns had no appreciation for the intangibles that make up team chemistry

LFGM21 days ago

@SNYtv The casuals whine about greedy Pete. THIS man is the one we were absolutely moronic to let go. Should have been named Captain rather than being traded. 🙄

Samuelito21 days ago

Really appreciated his transparency and love he had/has for the city

GABBY21 days ago

@JConstantinides He’s so lovely. He is excellent in dealing with the press.

Q: For Isack, you know you are his idol, so you are out there with young kids, how did it feel? "It feels crazy to be up there with the youngest podium." "It's really remarkable to see the young talent coming through, seeing how fierce they are, how focused they are. You know, Kimi not making a single mistake in this race and just pulling away like it's really really impressive to see and it reminds me a lot of me in my young days, but I mean still I'm still doing it today, so this is just the beginning for Hadjar, you know, Isack, it's just the beginning for him. He's got so much more ahead of him and same with Kimi. So I'm grateful to be up there and sharing it."

Urban Meyer shares a message everyone needs to hear - average is not acceptable. "It's so easy to be average. You know it as well as I know it." "It takes a little something to be special. It takes a little something special to be a great player." Then he made the standard clear: "We don't have enough great players. To hell with that!...We don't wanna coach average. I don't wanna be around you. Why be around average?" Average is comfortable. It's safe and it's not looking to compete. "Did you push yourself to be great today? Did you do it? If you didn't do it, you lost a day. We ain't got many days to lose." Every day you don't push yourself is a day you can't get back. Bring a mindset of excellence to everything you do. "And if there's a touch of greatness in there, how cool would that be?" The question isn't whether you have greatness in you. It's whether you're willing to work to find it. Show up, do the work, and compete. (🎥 ESPN)

"A lot of players don't understand what it takes. They think it's just going to be their skill level - and it's really not." It's not just desire. It's discipline. It's not just wanting. It's work. It’s not just what you can do; it’s what you choose to do.

Arteta: “To be fair, it's a bit different when you finish second and when you win it with your phone, and that's a sport and it's a big lesson in life as well because the margins are so small and it can go either way. “When you just accomplish it, you realise, yeah, how immense it is, how big it is for so many people. I mean, just to witness the happiness and the enjoyment, all the things that I've seen from all of our supporters, families in different countries, it's just so good.”

"There are 2 reasons why somebody doesn't do something: They don't know how to do it. It's our job to teach you how to do that. Once you know how to do it, & you don't do it, you just don't feel like it." Your 'have to' must be stronger than your 'want to' to be successful.

Urban Meyer said, "It's so easy to be average." "Did you push yourself to be great today? If you didn't do it, you lost today. We don't have many days to lose." Excellence isn't the goal - it's the standard you set. It's built in the details and how you compete.

"It's the human condition to be average. It's normal. It's special to get somebody that wants to be the best they can be-that understands how important it is to earn it." Average = Do you work to meet the required standard? Special = Do you work to become the new standard?
