    • Impact of Effective Coaching on Team PerformanceEffective coaching with clear communication, game plans, motivation, and mental preparation can significantly improve team performance

      Effective leadership and clear communication from coaches can significantly impact a team's performance. The speaker emphasized the impact of coaches like Reid and Heckman, who brought energy, clear game plans, and a personal touch to their teams. These coaches tweaked defensive strategies, taught effectively, and motivated their players to perform at their best. The night before the game, Coach Heckman's words of encouragement to take it personally and focus on each play resonated with the team, leading to increased energy, communication, and dominance on the field. The power of visualization and positive thinking before a game was also highlighted as a crucial factor in success.

The Marines' adaptability and the teamwork and communication skills developed through gaming were instrumental in their success.

    • Nintendo 64 games fostered team bondingCollege hockey team used N64 games for bonding, turning hockey game into a drinking game, creating high-scoring matches and team camaraderie

      The Nintendo 64 console and its games, particularly Wayne Gretzky 3D Hockey 98, played a significant role in building team chemistry and fostering social experiences for a college hockey team. The game was turned into a drinking game, leading to high-scoring matches and the consumption of a large quantity of beer within a short time frame. Other popular N64 games like Mario Kart 64 and Halo also provided entertainment and bonding opportunities. The conversation also touched upon the current success of Tyreek Hill in the National Football League and the resurfacing of an old Instagram comment about him from Keenan Allen. Despite the potential trash talk, it's important to remember that the comment's context and intent are unknown.

    • Chiefs' Offense Thrives with Mahomes' Leadership and InnovationThe Chiefs' offense is succeeding this season through Mahomes' exceptional play, new strategies, and the addition of Juju Smith-Schuster and Travis Kelce's continued dominance.

      The Chiefs' offense has evolved in new and exciting ways following Tyreke Hill's departure, with Patrick Mahomes playing a pivotal role in the team's success. Fan RG3 believes that the offense keeps evolving into Mahomes' strengths, and coach Reid is implementing new strategies that defenses haven't caught on to yet. The addition of Juju Smith-Schuster and Travis Kelce's continued dominance in the middle of the field have provided new ways to manufacture big plays. Mahomes' exceptional play this season, as evidenced by his top QB1 percentage, is a significant factor in the team's success. Mahomes' competitive nature and his tendency to take notes on film study fuel his determination to prove doubters wrong.

      Patrick Mahomes is a unique leader and quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs. He is known for his instinctual play and creativity on the field, but also his meticulous note-taking and film study off the field. This combination allows him to understand defenses and situational football to a high level, giving him a step ahead of the game. Mahomes' passion and love for football further enhance his instincts and make him one of the best in the business, particularly in high-pressure situations. His ability to balance precision and intuition sets him apart from other players and makes him an invaluable asset to the Chiefs.

    • NFL Players Prioritize Team Success Over Individual AchievementsDespite personal setbacks, NFL players remain focused on their team's success and emphasize the importance of physicality in the sport.

The conversation also touched upon the speaker's encounter with Rex Ryan, Miles Teller, and the Philadelphia Phanatic, making it a memorable week for him. Overall, the conversation highlights the speaker's unique perspective on life and his ability to make the most out of unexpected situations.

    • The power of passion and connectionPassion and connection can transcend perceived limitations, impacting experiences and performance through emotional connections and effective communication.

      The power of passion and connection can transcend perceived limitations, as demonstrated by the speaker's wife's deep love for the Philadelphia Phanatic mascot and the impact of coaches like Pete Carroll on athletes' careers. The Phanatic's iconic status in Philadelphia is a testament to the emotional connection people have with symbols and experiences. Similarly, coaching can significantly influence athletes' performance and development, with great coaches like Pete Carroll using their emotional intelligence and psychological understanding to connect with and bring out the best in their players. These examples illustrate the importance of genuine passion and effective communication in creating lasting impact.

    • Beyond tactics and strategy: Empowering players to be their best selvesGreat coaches empower individual players, allowing them to express their personalities and thrive within the team structure, leading to successful teams and happy players.

      Effective coaching in sports goes beyond tactics and strategy. It's about empowering individual players to be their best selves while maintaining the team's representation. Great coaches like Pete Carroll and Andy Reid have a unique ability to connect with their players, allowing them to express their personalities and thrive within the team structure. This approach leads to successful teams and happy players. From a player's perspective, the time commitment and responsibilities of being a coach in the NFL are immense, and not everyone has the ability to take on that role. Instead, players appreciate the dedication and hard work put in by their coaches to help them succeed.

    • Coaches who connect and inspireGreat coaches build strong bonds, instill confidence, and create a supportive team environment, shaping their players' lives with lasting impact.

      Great coaches possess both the ability to connect with their players on a personal level and the tactical expertise to lead them to success. The speaker recalls his father as the first coach he remembered due to their unique bond, but also highlights the importance of coaches who instill confidence and belief in their players during challenging times. These coaches, whether it be a father figure or a mentor, leave a lasting impact on their players' lives by fostering a family-oriented team atmosphere and inspiring them to overcome adversity and achieve their goals.

    • The Impact of Coaches on Personal GrowthSeeking advice from coaches and mentors, whether in sports or life, can lead to significant growth and motivation. Strive for self-improvement and learn from unexpected sources.

      Meaningful relationships with coaches, whether in sports or in life, can significantly impact a person's growth and motivation. The speaker shared his personal experiences of being inspired by various coaches, including Bill Belichick, Pete Carroll, and Vince Lombardi. He also emphasized the importance of seeking advice and learning from unexpected sources. The speaker's father's words, "I'm not raising you to be like me. I'm raising you to be better than me," resonated with him and became a guiding principle in his life. Overall, the speaker's message highlights the importance of striving for self-improvement and seeking out valuable mentors and coaches to help us reach our goals.

    • Great teammates prioritize others' growthUnselfish teammates commit to others' improvement, like Ben Jones, and display toughness, grit, and determination, like Bella Rasmussen.

      Great teammates exhibit an unselfish mindset, prioritizing the growth and improvement of others over their own self-interest. Ben Jones, the Tennessee Titans center, is a prime example of this value. Despite battling through injuries during a game, Jones' unwavering commitment to his team was evident in his performance and his relationship with his coach. This selfless attitude, combined with toughness and grit, sets the standard for what football is about. Another inspiring figure is Bella Rasmussen, a high school football player breaking barriers for women in the sport. Her determination and passion for the game, demonstrated through her record-breaking performances, serve as a reminder of the importance of perseverance and equality.

    • Unexpected Encounter with Daughter and Love for SportsAn encounter with his daughter in an Easter bunny costume left the speaker's daughter traumatized, leading to an obsession with ghosts. The speaker admired the Steelers' defensive skills and fondly remembered Charles Barkley as his favorite basketball player growing up.

      The speaker had an unexpected encounter with his daughter while dressed as the Easter bunny, leading to a traumatic experience for her. This incident resulted in her developing an obsession with ghosts, and the speaker's wife bought him a piglet costume as a result. In the world of sports, the speaker discussed the upcoming Steelers-Eagles game, sharing that they were once the same team, the Stegals, but were not very successful. The Steelers have not won in Philadelphia since 1965, and the speaker expressed admiration for their defensive prowess. The speaker also shared his favorite basketball player growing up was Charles Barkley, who he found inspiring during the Michael Jordan era.

    • Misconceptions about name originsPeople can have incorrect beliefs about their names and may try to change them, but the truth can be revealed and it's important to embrace one's true identity

      People can have misconceptions about the origins of their names, and these misconceptions can persist even if they are not true. The speaker in this conversation discovered that he had been telling the neighborhood that his name was Charles, when in reality his mother had named him Travis after a character in the movie "Overboard." He had always felt embarrassed about the seemingly insignificant reason for his name, and when he moved to a new city, he saw an opportunity to change it. However, when he tried to do so, his mother called him out on his bluff. Despite this, the speaker expressed a desire to distance himself from the perceived insignificance of his name and embrace a new identity. The conversation also touched on the importance of education and the roles of teachers and coaches in shaping people's lives. Overall, the conversation highlights the power of perception and the importance of embracing one's true identity.

We’ve got Jason coming to us from NYC and Travis from who knows where but that did not stop us from getting you another great episode.  We get into both guys heading to your TV screen with Travis giving us the inside scoop on his new role in a Ryan Murphy TV show and Jason explaining what he’s getting up to at ESPN. Most importantly we have a follow-up to the minor Twitter kerfuffle we started last week about the legacy of Secretariat.  The guys also react to what we know about the 2024 NFL schedule including the Chiefs kicking off the season against Lamar Jackson and the Ravens followed by a visit from Joe Burrow and the Bengals. We also find out how ready Jason is for the booth when we break down his first MNF assignment, and of course, we revisit the NFL vs NBA debate that tore the professional sports world apart.  Finally, Travis lets us know what he thought of his Eras Tour stop in Paris, we attempt to name the new Utah NHL team, and we’ve got a huge announcement from our friends at Crown Royal.  If you want to nominate a 92% who has taken your community to New Heights, submit their name, and a photo, and let us know how they’ve been giving back to our email at: newheightshow@gmail.com.

    Travis Goes Racing, Brady Roast Reactions and Anniversary Swords | Ep 89
    92%ers we are back with another episode of New Heights sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings. Let’s Go Sports Bar!  In this episode, we’ve got some updates on how you can attend the biggest party in Kansas City at this year's Kelce Jam 2.0 and where you can watch all of the videos recapping our incredible live show in Cincinnati.  But we’ve got some important business to get to in this episode including, responding to Ryan Reynolds’ and Rob McElhenney’s plan to get us to a Wrexham game overseas and Pat Mahomes’ claim that he can’t keep up with the Kelce boys.  We also have the reveal of Kylie’s anniversary sword, our reactions to the roast of Tom Brady, Travis gives us all the details on his time at the races in Kentucky and Miami, and Jason is maybe starting a feud with Secretariat. That horse could outrun the competition but not the asterisk we’re adding to the record books.  We finally check in on the NFL now that we’re 120 days until kickoff and break down what fans should take away from rookie mini-camps and react to all the guys maybe doing too much in their social media workouts.  Don't forget to check out all the videos from our live show in Cincinnati.

    #13 Kentan Road 15/1  This could be the best "value" in the race that will give you lots of options in. I like the fact that a speed horse, drawn far outside, has no other immediate speed to her inside in this spot. Secondly, I like the fact that Sadler goes with a bug in here again as this filly has responded with the bug has signed on. On top of all of that, look at the only run on turf... it was the debut... 5f (todays distance), at Del Mar (todays track), a 3rd by 6 1/4 lengths and DREW THE RAIL!!!!! I think this one can take an ENORMOUS step forward today with speed, on the preferred grass, bug boy on board AND a track where she has had previous success. Look out!!!!
