Some quotes from Sean Payton, new head coach of the Denver Broncos, that relate to business as well as football:
“Discipline, toughness, football makeup and character are going to be really important for who is a Denver Bronco. I use this story and it’s a compliment. When I got hired in New Orleans in 2006, we just had to look at New England if we really wanted to see what the standard was. If we were making pizzas and there’s a line around the block in front of their pizza parlor, then we might want to know what they’re putting in their crust or their sauce.”
Related to the Patriots and Bill Belichick: “We studied closely how important intelligence was along with communication and makeup. That served us well later. There is an element of discipline, and there is an element of toughness. Look, it’s not for everyone. It’s not for everyone, but that’s the approach we’ll take.”
