People go crazy when a team loses.
Quick spurts of emotion are usually off taget when applied by a response oriented fan. Just as with an athlete. There are quite a few motives that can cause a person to be driven to succeed.
It deals with the drive and not the motives behind them. The motives behind them, usually lead a direction as well. So motives for drive are important as well.
Aggression in football is involved with a sport. An athlete is able to differentiate between blatant anger and goal directed itensities.
That is, unless he is corrupted by a criminally based ethics in his drive.
There are periods of times when a NFL level athlete has been corrupted by convenience of personal release and large cash flows empowered opportunity for drama and 'pleasures' frowned upon by a general and much more strongly sacrificing public.
That doesn't mean that criminal intent is what causes the difference.
That comes with how a person learns to deal with confrontation and intense activity. The cruxt is in knowledge of how to deal with supportive action, mind set, and skill sets.
That personal reference set, is not dependent upon a positive or negative motive for stimulus, but in knowledge of application of itensity, commitment, and physical applications.
This, again, isn't dependent upon a negative motive, but only on acquiring the skillset to respond as intense and similarly in application on the field. Now, taking that to include drugs, prostitution, and cruelty exhibited by beatings and murder on itensifies the rush to REMOVE that individual from the professional sports venue. It becomes self defeating and quickly escalates, unless the individual identifies the problem...and CHANGES.
Ray Lewis, and yea, Michael Irvin walked through the heartaches and redirected their respective careers. They, although, gained a strength from learning how to deal with those circumstances and focus more intensely on their athletic aspirations.
If one has paid attention, both Ray Lewis and Michael Irvin have since preached focus in intensity and team play. Not crime and getting over socially. There is a difference. But positive motives can lead there as well. As to on the field success.
It's dedication that turns the corner for achievement.
