Descartes, Interrupted
  Patricia Miller

You only coach 'cause you can't play, buddy. If ya could,
ya would, and get filthy rich quick too.

Yelling's a psychological failure of the ability to play skillfully.

Oh yeah? The bigger the player gets, the louder I yell.
Besides, nice guys finish last, most of the time.
As Leo Durocher said, "Win any way,
as long as you can get away with it. Nice guys finish last."

I coach. Therefore, I yell.
