The Final Speech


The final speech is one filled with mixed emotions. Some are glad the football season is over, now there is more time for them to enjoy other extra curricular activities. But for most, the football season has ended too soon. The TU football players finished the 2009 in a disappointing way, no conference title nor trip to the playoffs. Steve Mohr, the head coach, tries to speak on the positives and look ahead to the future. Many players’ hearts are heavy from their under-performance. A flood of promises and commitments for next season usurp the players’ hearts and minds, but for now the only thing that is left is the final speech.
Phases such as: good season, great promises, and hard work are used by the head coach to sum up the season. The speech falls on hollow ears because the players know it is a speech trying to minimize the damage from an underperformed season. It is the hardest speech to give after a season of competition, and all but the winning coach has to give one. The football season for the TU football is over. The final speech is the announcement end of a sport that 95 guys have spent many dedicated hours preparing for. The final speech is sad, but there is always next year.
