NUMBER ONE SPEECH
"Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win
once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right
all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
"There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and
that's first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and
I don't ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl game,
but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has been an
American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to
win.
"Every time a football player goes to play his trade he's got to play from the
ground up - from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him
has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That's O.K. You've got to be
smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to
play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If you're lucky enough to
find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off
the field second.
"Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of
organization - an army, a political party or a business. The principles are
the same. The object is to win - to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard
or cruel. I don't think it is.
"It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive
games draw the most competitive men. That's why they are there - to compete.
To know the rules and objectives when they get in the game. The object is to
win fairly, squarely, by the rules - but to win.
"And in truth, I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep
down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is
something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality
of head to head combat.
"I don't say these things because I believe in the 'brute' nature of man or
that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe
in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour - his
greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear - is that moment when he has to work
his heart out in a good cause and he's exhausted on the field of battle -
victorious."
--Vince Lombardi
