Looks like the new image consultant is earning his keep.

I am 56 years old and I have NEVER been a great athlete, but I get up at 4:05 every week day to workout. While, I woul like to think that is superhuman, I KNOW that it isn't.

that is awesome (seriously) and no one is saying it's superhuman. But it's impressive with a high stress, high volume hours job like he has, and 3 young children, that he gets up between 3-5 am everyday and does MMA workouts . Imo. Edited March 29, 2017 by YoloinOhio

Drinking game. Everytime McDermott says "we know what they bring to the table" you drink. It's his "obviously" or "and stuff like that"

I just thought it would be a funny thing to point out for our new head coach. Fresh breath of air from Rexy

 

Actually I agree.

 

A lot of great coaches are not great athletes. Yet, I do think McD's physical fitness and discipline will may help him earn the respect of his players.

 

In fact, I personally find it easier to respect a guy who takes care of himself and has self-discpline than one who doesn't.

I thought his "obviously" was "process?"

[Augie]

Awesome. What are Andy Reid or Belichick doing at that time?

Rex is dreaming about donuts!

[DC Tom]

Awesome. What are Andy Reid

 

Starting his third bucket of wings.

 

 

or Belichick doing at that time?

 

Stealing play books.

Hard to know how this year will go but I'm impressed by what I've seen out of McDermott. He seems to rival Marrone in terms of intensity but without being a control freak. Well that I know of anyway.

Whaley works out too, y'know!

 

How come nobody makes a big deal about that?

yeah but how many wrestling titles has he won?

Waste of time. Youre not a player. Spend the time on the film room.

gaining the respect of your players is never a waste of time.......

Agreed, and the health benefits with additional energy make you more effective. I have no doubt he sees enough film. I know I am more effective with exercise.

Best time of the day to do it.....consistancy is key

I wake up at 3:30am and walk around my developmint, make oatmeal and watch weather channel before you even get up. So maybe you should get up earlier because I get the worm son.

You are welcome to enjoy my worm. I'll sleep in, then have skim milk and a banana.

Rex wakes up at 5am to do MMA too! Oh wait we actually have a coach now that has a disciplined work ethic now.. feels weird.. He's looking like the real deal can't wait to see him coach
