Not useless, old saying, or poor excuses. I had a football coach motion me over to the sideline after I missed a block on a blitzing line backer that beheaded our quarterback. Took his helmet off was so bad.
As an offensive tackle, we ran a play that called for me to cut and take someone out, but after the ball was hiked, I made my cut and went after my guy that wasn't there, not picking up the blitzing line backer that pretty much murderized our quarterback.
I trotted over to the sideline and stood right in front of my coach that stood there with his arms crossed, never said a word as I pleaded my case. When I was finsished, he simply asked "Are you finsished" and I said that I was. With that, he simply said "Excuses don't get the job done, never have, never will" and then he benched me for the rest of the game.
For as long as I live, I will never ever forget those words and try to live up to them.
"Excuses don't get the job done, never have, never will"
