It's been raining... and raining... and snowing... and raining... and sleeting... and raining. 

But we're choosing to prepare for the sunshine. 

We talk about a variety of topics on today's episode. This is the week that Pat and Chris's high school baseball teams meet up with each other on the diamond, and this episode was recorded the day before GAME DAY. 

It is a nationwide problem, and our student athletes are going to pay the consequences of it. It's no longer something that is "coming soon," it is here. It's a problem that has solutions, and we can all chip in and help. 

Should you define your team's core values? If so, how should you go about it and how should they be viewed in the grand scheme of things? 

Chris and Pat reflect after the first day of high school practice, and talk about the importance of expectations for everyone. 

Each one of us has a particular realm of ownership and influence in the culture and strategy of our team or organization. What will we do with it? 

How do you handle the awkward moments when a well-intentioned coach teaches something to a player that is different than the way you would like things to be done in your program? We discuss the importance of building good relationships of trust and always working with open minds and teachable spirits as coaches. 

We dive into the mindset of the best. If you want to be the best, this is how you think. 

What a privilege to have Coach Jimmy Burrow, father of Joe Burrow, on to chat with us about the characteristics he sees in his own son that make him relentless, unstoppable, and determined to be the best. 

The guys debate the merits of postgame handshaking.
