I have posted videos of athletes and coaches “breaking down” at press conferences in the past. You might remember Jim Mora vs. Allen Iverson or the Breakdowns Auto Tune Medley. If you liked those videos, you’ll surely like this one, because it features much of the same.
This video came from the Inside the NFL show and centers around Herm Edwards famous “you play to win the game” breakdown when he coached the Jets, but also features many famous coaches like Jim Mora, Dennis Green and Iron Mike Ditka.
If you are into NFL Football, this is a “must watch” video. If you aren’t really into sports, then this probably won’t be as funny for you.
I’ve already posted the Allen Iverson Meltdown vs. Jim Mora Meltdown video, and now I’m going to take things one step further. This amazing video takes all sports meltdowns over the past several years and mashes them into one… all in the form of a music video. The voices are blended together using the “auto tune” method that has become so popular in hip hop music (think T-Pain and Kanye West).
If you follow sports at all, you should find this video to be amazingly well done!
Meltdowns included:
Allen Iverson
Jim Mora
Denny Green (THEY ARE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE)
Oklahoma State Football Coach (I’m a man, I’m 40!)
Joe Namath trying to Kiss Suzy Colber
Terrell Owens
We sittin here, I’m supposed to be a franchise player, and we in here talking bout PRACTICE?!? Not a game! Practice!
Two of the most memorable breakdowns in the history of sports press conferences merged into one video. Pretty well done, although it’s sort of short and the credits at the beginning and end are a little cheesy.
I have always loved the Jim Mora “Playoffs” rant where he absolutely broke down several years ago during a press conference while he was coaching the Colts. In fact, I enjoy it to the point that I can rarely say the word “playoffs” anymore without laughing or imitating Jim Mora.
The Allen Iverson portion of this video is also a classic where he addresses criticism that he misses too many practices. You can clearly tell from his tone how he feels about practice!
My favorite line:
“Practice” and/or “Playoffs!”
