In Al Pacino's speech from the film "Any Given Sunday," the way he delivers his speech, in my opinion, is pretty terrible. I do not believe most coaches would rant about how messed up their lives have been. It is not a good way to pump your team up. It took their attention away from the game and got them thinking about something that probably does not matter to them. Some parts did get my attention but the rest was horrendous. I could have done better than that.
I i disagree with Eric as well. I don't think that just because the coach talked about situations in his own life doesn't make the speech horrendous. He is making connections within the speech and supporting it indirectly of the sport to make it have a stronger impact.
I disagree with Eric because the coach is trying to tell his team to fight their way back into the light. He talks about his personal situations because he doesn't want his team to make a mistake that can disappoint them for the rest of their lives.You have to fight for what you want and that is what the coach is talking about. Sometimes you want to hear a speech that has a story or a connection behind it and that is what the coach is trying to do to inspire his players.
I disagree with Eric. Even though he did go off on a rant about his past mistakes it was relevant to what he was talking about. Maybe he could have come up with a better example, but overrall I thought he at least tried to be motivational.
I sort of disagree with Eric. I think that Pacino's character was successful in motivating his team, but going into a dramatic recounting of his life's failures was unneeded, it takes away from the main point of the speech.
I agree with Erin. I think Pacino successfully motivated his team, considering they all jumped around in the end. Although, the details of his messed up life weren't needed for motivation.
I agree with Eric. I think that Al Pacino didnt do the best motivating the team. I dont think that he should of added how he cant even look at himself in the mirror and how messed up his life was. He should have sticked to talking about football instead of his life.
In my opinion, this speech would have actually "pumped me up" if i had been one of his players. It allowed them to know that he was a real person and not just their coach. This makes him a very relatable person in a sense. When he goes on about his past, it shows that he has something to fight for and, since the whole purpose of the speech is to fight to win, it makes it totally justified that he went off on a sort of rant.
iIn Al Pacino's speech from the film "Any Given Sunday," i disagree with eric the reason being i like when people give motivational speeches and put their life in it. That to me is a great speech. He was a using his self as a example people!!!!! so they can learn from him or relate.
I disagree with Eric, I believe that Al Pacino successfully motivated his team. By using examples from his own life, it helped the players connect with the coach and show the importance of winning the game. If he would have just used all football talk and no personal stories, then it wouldn't have made an impact on the players.
I disagree with Eric also i think that he movtivated his team very well. The examples he used are a good way to relate to them and it could help out the team. I think that personal stories help because if all you do is talk about plays and what they could have done better and differently it would just bring them down and they would not have any movtivation to do what they were suppose to do. So i think the personal stories are a good way to relate to the team.
