Why the Right Practice Always Feels Wrong (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is the sixth piece of Kahnemann posts I have written, and the one where the pattern finally shows itself.🙋♂️It’s also the last one I’ll publish for the foreseeable future. Exactly two years ago, I started writing weekly here on Substack. I feel like I’ve made the contribution to the sports coaching community that I set out to make. Now I want to put that energy back into coaching the athletes on my teams.If you ever want to talk coaching, just reach out! I’d be glad to have a good conversa
The Tuesday You Almost Went Back to Cones (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is 6:40 pm on a Tuesday and the boot of the car is open.The cone bag is in there, pushed to the back, where it went three weeks ago when I decided I was finished with it. My hand is resting on it. Not lifting it. Just resting.Twenty minutes earlier the session had come apart four separate times. A 4v4 that never survived past the third play before somebody stopped to ask what the rule was.

The Team That Wasn’t Afraid to Be Wrong (opens the original)

I have no corrections to make and I feel briefly, dangerously pleased.Saturday, second quarter, the same five kids. A receiver runs straight through a gap between the corner and the safety that neither of them appears to see. Twenty-two yards. Nobody touches him.On the sideline they look at each other. Not angry. Puzzled. Someone says, “That was mine, right?”
He Never Came Back to the Ball, and Didn’t Know Why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Second half, away game, one of those hot July afternoons where the heat sits on the field like a lid and everyone’s socks are soaked through by the second series.Dabian runs a go route down the right sideline. Clean release. Good stem. By midfield the corner is two steps behind him and losing ground.The throw goes up and hangs a beat short, the way throws hang short at this level, because twelve-year-old arms are still twelve-year-old arms.And he keeps running.The corner reads it, breaks forward
