Saints are seeing early progress from Stephone Anthony as he tries to rebound from a frustrating season

Re: Saints are seeing early progress from Stephone Anthony as he tries to rebound from a frustrating season

My high school history teacher failed me because I was bored, never applied myself and didn't earn a passing grade. He was possibly one of the most boring speakers I've ever had to sit through. When I went to college my professor was a creative picture painting genius. I saw battles coming to life and could see history unfold in a fascinating way. History then became my minor in college.

It's funny what a good teacher can do for people after giving the students the proper tools to succeed. I'm hoping for Anthony to put it all together with Nolan showing him how to do it. He started with all the right tools and hopefully it was Joe Vitt that just confused him rather than tailoring a method of coaching that would specifically suit him.

Boy, Rugs, you nailed it...

My Senior Year, I spent the last three weeks lunch period with my Physics teacher...

He couldn't understand how I could score so high on the ACT in science and be horrible in Math...

In those weeks, we did a "refresher" of Algerbra, Trig, Calc...

My Freshman, Sophmore College years - Mathematics classes were my strongest and easiest taken...

It takes a willing student and a patient teacher; sadly most of my teachers didn't have patience with me and were just mailing it in for the check...

Will always be grateful to my HS Physics and Geometry Teachers for what they did for me...

Even if I rebuilt their Lister Engine Generator for their Camp in trade...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Ten years ago I wanted to pursue physics and after sitting down with a Physics professor he said that my math back ground would limit me to being only a theoretical physicist. I truly suck at math, but if I've got to suck at something I'd rather it be math instead of drinking!

This. I believe that was the problem w Rob Ryan. He had a lot of experience and knowledge, but he didnt k ow how to transfer it to the players on the field.
