Applied to coaches... 6 Rules for Sports Coaches. 1. It’s their journey, not your résumé Don’t coach for your record. Coach for their growth. 2. Hard moments are where growth happens. Don’t remove them. Guide them. 3. Own the locker room tone What you say, and how you say it, sticks longer than you think. 4. Model what you expect Effort. Energy. Attitude. They will mirror you. 5. Celebrate the team over the individual Culture wins when “we” matters more than “me.” 6. Make it about more than the scoreboard Years from now, they won’t remember the score. They’ll remember how you made them feel. Be the coach they remember for the right reasons.

6 Rules for Sports Parents: 1. It’s not about you 2. Struggle is part of the deal 3. Don’t ruin the car ride home 4. Your kid is watching you 5. Cheer for the team 6. Enjoy every moment One day, the games will end. Make sure the memories don’t.

Nutrition Mistakes Baseball Players Make 1. Not Eating Enough Quality Carbohydrates: Baseball players often under-fuel with carbohydrates, which are the body’s primary energy source during long practices, doubleheaders, and intense training sessions. Without enough quality carbs, players risk fatigue, slower reaction times, and even "bonking" a sudden crash in energy due to depleted glycogen stores. 2. Skipping or Delaying Meals: A common mistake is eating too little before practice or games, or eating too much too close to start time. Poor meal timing can lead to low energy, sluggish performance, or stomach discomfort during activity. 3. Relying on Junk Food: Many athletes reach for processed snacks, sugary drinks, and convenience foods that are high in calories but low in nutrients. This can lead to GI distress, energy crashes, and poor recovery. 4. Neglecting Recovery Nutrition: Baseball players often miss the critical window after games and training to refuel properly. Skipping recovery meals means missing out on the chance to repair muscles, replenish glycogen, and optimize performance for the next day. Recovery meals should include quality protein, carbohydrates, fluids, electrolytes, and ideally creatine. 5. Not Staying Hydrated: Even mild dehydration can impair focus, reaction time, and overall performance. Games and tournaments in hot, humid conditions, so consistent hydration before, during, and after activity is key. Cramping and fatigue often trace back to poor hydration habits. 6. Skipping Breakfast and Using Energy Drinks: Too many players skip breakfast or depend on energy drinks for a quick fix. This can lead to poor focus, unstable energy, and long-term health effects. A balanced breakfast with protein, carbs, and healthy fats is far more effective for sustained energy and performance. 7. Poor Sleep Habits: Lack of sleep can undo even the best nutrition plan. Sleep is when the body recovers, hormones regulate, and the brain resets. Staying up late and scrolling or gaming cuts into the recovery needed to compete at a high level.

During one of the worst losing streaks of my career, our team president walked into my office. Keli McGregor. One of the best men I've ever known. He could have come to vent. To question my decisions. To ask hard questions. Instead, he said: "Cut to the chase, Clint. What's next?" I looked him in the eye and gave him two words: "Shower well." The Colorado Rockies were struggling badly that year. Pregame preparation was solid. Scout meetings, early work, attention to detail. All of it was there. But at game time, the tires were flat. I told Keli: the game did everything it could to us today. We just couldn't meet its demands. Now it was time to reset. "Shower well" means exactly this: • Watch the frustration circle down the drain • Shampoo, rinse, repeat and get the grime of today completely off your mind • Walk out clean, go home, and actually rest Leave it at the ballpark. The game is over. There's nothing left to solve tonight. Keli nodded. Asked if he could share it with the whole organization. I said sure. And then it hit me. This isn't just for baseball. Bad day at the office. Grumpy boss. Missed deadline. Traffic on the way home. You can carry all of that through your front door. Or you can shower well. I've never seen a single problem get better because someone dragged it home with them. The reset is a discipline. Same as preparation. Same as showing up. Either we win. Or we learn. The only real loss? When you don't take a single thing out of a hard day. So tonight, whatever kind of day it was, shower well. Tomorrow is a new at-bat. What does your reset look like? I'd love to hear it.

The weight room is biased. It only rewards those who work. And it will see right through anyone not willing to do it. It’s a truth teller. You can’t fool it. It will let you know exactly where things stand.
