Terence McClain you mean ron jeremys evil twin right? Tomsula makes erikson the head coach before mike nolan look smart. At least erikson had an excuse for his idiocy he was a freaking drunk. Whats tomsulas exscuse he was used as a soccer ball as a baby?
Singletary had 50% of what it takes to be a great coach. He has the tenacity, love,emotion and intensity. He just needed a way to transfer that into his players. Kinda like magic johnson, he loved the game so much and had such a drive that when he saw players who didnt have that, he didnt know what to do.
Yeah I always thought of him as a great Drill Instructor just not a true general. I thought he instilled great values in his guys, he was inspiring, he just wasn't a very good tactician.
Magic Johnson when he stepped away from coaching---I'm paraphrasing but it was basically "When I played, Kareem, Kurt Rambis and I sat in the locker room after wins or losses and talked about what we had to do to get another ring. I walk into this locker room and hear these guys talking about who has the nicer cell phone. I can't deal with this."
@@detpistons4l401 Because it's the "coach ripping on a player in public" trope that the media hates. No matter how correct the coach is, the media will rip the coach. In the end, he was right for going on this tirade. He wanted to win so badly that he wanted only people who wanted to win, not people who wanted to lose. Vernon Davis slapping a player in the face for no reason, and then getting a 15 yard penalty on top of it is a losers mentality. Can't win when you take penalties like that.
This speech reminds me of what I go through every Saturdays at work. I tell my co-workers that I’d rather work with 2 people on shift than work with 1 person knowing that person is going to be deadweight and I have to carry him. Cannot work with him. Cannot make money with him. Can’t do it.
Davis was a flash in the pan, the product of a being a primary focal point (to his credit, admittedly) of his team's red zone offense for a few years and not that much more aside from his size/athleticism. He is fortunate that his coaches dialed so many play calls that were engineered specifically to feed him the ball. IMO this really inflated his value, at least his perceived value. Mark my words, he may not be all that old -- Vernon is 5-7 years younger than Antonio Gates (who is unusually old but still a top-5 TE in the NFL regardless of his age) -- but he has already played his best football. I mean to say that ("his best football") in every sense of the phrase; in a literal sense, statistically... however you wanna slice it. His stats may climb next season, and probably will, relative to this past year's injury-plagued disappointment. How can they not?? But regardless of that, Davis is well on his way to reverting back to the selfish player he initially appeared to be when issues both on and off the field had many of us convinced he would be a TOTAL bust, especially given his 3rd overall NFL pedigree. It's in his character to take shortcuts, put himself before the team, and rely on his physical gifts to get by... such is the attitude responsible for him *almost* never even getting his big payday at all. Anyone who gives him a big contract on the back nine of his career deserves the disappointment they are setting themselves up for.
This is who the Lions need as a head coach! If you listen to Vernon Davis now, he credits Mike Singletary with turning him around. I pray some team gives him another shot.
Mike Singletary change the culture of this team. He is the reason that Jim Harbrough had the formula and pieces, all he had to do was take them the next level, and that is what Jim did.
In many ways, Mike Singleterry had a huge role in making the 49ers the team they are today. He disciplined the players and made them check their egos out the door. Humility. Without it, Jim Harbaugh wouldn't of had the success he had (having to deal with entitled brats). Made the team development that much better.
No he didn't. Mike Singletary is a silly man that likes to joke around and have fun. Mike Singletary performed in the Bears embarrassing "Superbowl Shuffle" song where he showed his true colors. The man was a class clown and shame on people for falling for this tough guy discipline nonsense. Mike Singletary would rather be at a karaoke bar laughing the night away.
The Niners needed Singletary to come back and bench Vernon again this season. Holding out and missing practice for more money? Can't catch shit all season? Cannot play with them. Cannot win with them. Cannot coach with them. CAN'T DO IT.
You do realize Singletary performed in the infamous Bears "Superbowl Shuffle" right? At heart he is silly and likes to play around too much. That's why I find it amazing people fell so hard for his tough guy discipline schtick. Freaking unreal.
he sounds like my dad... i dont know how many times ive heard him say "im from the old school" and stuff like attitude is everything and it takes heart lol... so i can fully appreciate this rant... CANT DO IT!
As a long time 49ers fan. This is the coach that made the 49ers defense. That in turn made the forty niners a top nfl team again. I miss him I wish we could have him back as a defensive mind again
never got the credit he deserved..he helped to reverse the luck of this franchise, but never was able to take that next step with them because of that 2010 season..
Mike, please come & be a coach here in Cleveland... I loved your intensity as a player & i love it now... Hope you make it to the stars in the NFL... Always a fan... Celestino...
honestly....this guy is the back bone to this niner success....without him honestly this team would not be as mentally tough and hard nosed without mike...thank u mike....you probably wont get the love but u deserve it
For everyone commenting that Mr. Singletary was the “stepping stone,” and the dutiful “drill instructor” to prepare the Niners for “General” Harbaugh; it did my heart good to see them come up short in the Super Bowl. How fitting that it was another legendary Middle Linebacker that put a stop their chances in that game. I love the cosmos.
Singletary is only lacking the x's and o's part of the game. Put him as a defensive coordinator for 2-3 seasons under a smart coach. Give him the way to turn his passion to game management and he'd be amazing.
AMEN BROTHER--- I always said He set this team in the right motion, and got the quality guys we needed to win ,, he just didnt have the head coaching pedigree.. .i wish he could be on this team as a linebackers coach or something so he could experience the ride to the superbowl ...
This was not the day after the game, this was immediately following the game. I was at this game and listened to this press conference live on the radio on the way home.
We need men like this, forth right, to the point and straight forward. Excellent. These are the great leader types......believe me I know. Absolutely awesome !
Great interview... he can be a bit over-the-top if I may but I respect him as a great player and a fiery coach... he is helping San Fran get better each year. I think the niners will make the playoffs this year.
You can say what you want about Mike Singletary as a coach, but Vernon Davis learned a valuable lesson that day. The moment helped mold him into the player and teammate he is today. Good for you, Vernon.
Yall stop hatin on this dude, he did the best he could and he genuinly wanted the best for the team, he just didnt have all the skills as a coach, he made great draft choices and free agent pick ups,, we gotta give this man his due...
This speech reminds of my co workers at Wal Mart who come in late every single day, take 25 minute breaks, take an hour and a half lunch hours and also go to the bathroom multiple times during their shift. CANNOT WORK WITH THEM....😂
i honestly think he will be one of the best coach's even in football. he just needs this next draft. and i bet he will get a 12-4 season next year. i hope he gets that. cuz his style of coaching is a very strick and dissaplend style. and i love it!
love watching this after seeing Davis' complete turnaround after this game. He went from a primadonna to quite possibly the best TE in football. Great job by Singletary and Davis to get his career turned around.
My friend referred me to this video when I was a bad wingman last night
+duvalkc should have more votes
thanks for the idea to your friend i'm sending this to my friend now because my buddy was a horrible wingman last weekend.
ha ha good idea
Best Comment Lol
duvalkc nice
"Cannot play with them, cannot win with them, cannot coach with them, can't do it"
Greatest quote ever
And Vernon changed his act after this speech too. I love it.
Singletary was the stepping stone for the 49ers success, respectively.
I have to say I agree with you wholeheartedly on that. he set up their defense and really got their asses whipped into shape.
and Tomsula is the stepping stone for failure and stupidity
Terence McClain you mean ron jeremys evil twin right? Tomsula makes erikson the head coach before mike nolan look smart. At least erikson had an excuse for his idiocy he was a freaking drunk. Whats tomsulas exscuse he was used as a soccer ball as a baby?
@Sir Charles You pulling the race card, you little bitch?
@@VicInNocal Race card? More like facts card.
This man gave the truest speech ever delivered by a coach.
Matt M So much passion behind his words. You can't buy that, you can't teach that.
YES!!!!
Facts Cant Win With Him Either
No Herm Edwards did
He’s the Donald Trump of coaches?
can't do it.

👍great assessment!
Excellent constructive criticism.
Jim Harbaugh needs to send this guy a Thank You basket
He’ll have to send it to heaven
Without this, Vernon Davis does not become the player he is today.
gotta go through struggle first in order to be successful in life!
Vernon would tell you that himself.
@@DustinBlythecheck out his interview with Edelman. Said exactly that himself
I'd run through a brick wall for this guy. Wow!
I want Winners I want people that wanna win!
He ended up being right. I still remember how badly the media started to portray Singletary when this happened.
How does this make him look bad? Sounds like a good coach to me. Maybe Vernon Davis shouldn’t be so selfish

If it wasn't for Singletary, Davis wouldn't be in the league let alone a top 5 TE.
LOL TOP 5 TE, MORE LIKE TOP 20
PunaniLicker69 He is top 5.
PunaniLicker69 When this was posted he was top 3. Grok, Graham, and VD.

MFBloosh bullshit he ran a 4.38 and did over 20 reps I believe 25 reps at the combine and was awesome before he got there.
Great speech from a great man.
This is who the Lions need as a head coach! If you listen to Vernon Davis now, he credits Mike Singletary with turning him around. I pray some team gives him another shot.
Bears need him worse!
This is 10 years old now but Detroit got their Singletary in the shape of Dan Cambell

Mike is a winner, and winners know how to do one thing very well--WIN!
a man speaking the truth. passion to win and wanting to win can't be taught. you either have it or you don't
I quote him on "I want winners" almost daily!
I wish Singletary became a coach for the Bears. Man that would be fucking awesome.
Greatest truthful rant in the history of pro sports... Also reminds me of Patrice O’Neil rip- “Women don’t want to win, they want a winner!”
He built most of that roster that harbaugh took to the super bowl
Everyone forgets
This video symbolized a shift in Culture for me as a whole.
Mike couldnt grasp the Selfie in the end zone celebration Generation.
The Niners needed Singletary to come back and bench Vernon again this season.
Holding out and missing practice for more money? Can't catch shit all season? Cannot play with them. Cannot win with them. Cannot coach with them. CAN'T DO IT.

Speaking the truth, this is not a rant in my opinion by "Samurai Mike"
This and the “you play to win the game” rant from Herm Edwards are my two favorite coach rants ever.
Both so damn true.
Sorry but none can beat the Da Bears are who we thought they were speech. Lol
@@john_doe_smith If you want to crown ‘em, then crown their ass!!!
@@ryanatorryanson9535 everybody played 3 quarters!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm just here so I won't get fined

I don't understand why he doesn't have job in the nfl
He does now for the rams
+Renegade fuck stan kroenke
he was in HS but had 1-21 record and quit because he wants winners
How I felt about Zay Flowers after the AFC championship game.
Singletary was Never given enough credit for this
As a long time 49ers fan. This is the coach that made the 49ers defense. That in turn made the forty niners a top nfl team again. I miss him I wish we could have him back as a defensive mind again
oh man this guy is a beast
If they ever make a movie about the Niners, Denzel Washington has to do this part.
He told Vernon Davis he would rather play with 10 guys on the field and just take a penalty every play then have him in the game...
One of the greatest coaching rants I've ever seen. Everything he says is so true.
I see absolutely nothing wrong with the comments. I think he never got the chance to be great. We all have greatness built in us..
I work as a manager and this is the same type of speech I felt like giving today.
He's so awesome!
I remember watching this live like it was yesterday
never got the credit he deserved..he helped to reverse the luck of this franchise, but never was able to take that next step with them because of that 2010 season..
Ill always have love for coach Singletary
I can see why he was the Captain of the great 1985 Bears defense.
Mike, please come & be a coach here in Cleveland...
I loved your intensity as a player & i love it now...
Hope you make it to the stars in the NFL...
Always a fan...
Celestino...
He's right
honestly....this guy is the back bone to this niner success....without him honestly this team would not be as mentally tough and hard nosed without mike...thank u mike....you probably wont get the love but u deserve it
Motivated me to get up off my ass and start going hard again

How sixers fans feel about Ben simmons
The IBM commercial brought me back here
"CAN'T DO IT!" Coach singletary is the shit!!
He put Vernon in the hall of fame.
They should play this postgame press conference on loop in Canton. Best coaching rant ever.
still relevant in 2019
And 2020
That was Buddy Ryan talking through Mike...
"Can't do it!"
I'm so rooting for the 49ers this year. I love Mike Singletary's mentality. I hope they win at least 10 games.
Singletary is only lacking the x's and o's part of the game. Put him as a defensive coordinator for 2-3 seasons under a smart coach. Give him the way to turn his passion to game management and he'd be amazing.

I love Coach Singletary for this.
" I want winners" I got the T-shirt... Oh yeah!!!
The Spark that began the 49ers journey back to relevance in the early 2010’s.
CAN'T DO IT!
This was not the day after the game, this was immediately following the game. I was at this game and listened to this press conference live on the radio on the way home.
He should be in the NFL again, he just had a crappy young team when he coached. Put him in Cleveland or Oakland.
With another crappy young team?
+MrSinister718 Cleveland yes..Raiders are stacked
We need men like this, forth right, to the point and straight forward. Excellent. These are the great leader types......believe me I know. Absolutely awesome !
If you're a rams fan are you excited about him joining the rams? I am
fuck stan kroenke
What position? Like what coaching position? Linebacker coach?
Because he is black
Great interview... he can be a bit over-the-top if I may but I respect him as a great player and a fiery coach... he is helping San Fran get better each year. I think the niners will make the playoffs this year.
R u listening, AB?😁
Damn, you'd think he's talking about Jay Cutler.
Imagine saying this today, with these woke crybabies🙄🙄🙄🙄
Most underrated post game rant ever.
This is the real shit
I saw Vernon Davis yesterday, his kids go to the same private school as mine. LOL!
After Evan engram drop... I want winners 💯🎯
You can say what you want about Mike Singletary as a coach, but Vernon Davis learned a valuable lesson that day. The moment helped mold him into the player and teammate he is today. Good for you, Vernon.
the coach sucked but really good point he's making and good speech
I love Mike Singletary. Great linebacker, will be a great coach. He tells the truth - what more can you ask?
I would kill to have him back in Chicago! My god the bears need this guy....
Excellent coach...........amazing.
Spoken like a true legend! I can go to war with a leader like this!
wow. This man, means what he says. Inspirational, to the point and forth right. Very very solid. powerful. I like him.
Yall stop hatin on this dude, he did the best he could and he genuinly wanted the best for the team, he just didnt have all the skills as a coach, he made great draft choices and free agent pick ups,, we gotta give this man his due...
Absolutely CLASSIC! I hear the soundbytes "Can't do it!" or "I want winners!" frequently on sports radio.
that wasn't a rant, that was a man stating the facts and making a point about the discipline of his team. great stuff singletary.
This will never get old
Fantastic! Way to go, coach!
No doubt! Mike is right on the money. It is about time that a coach puts these million dollar athletes in their place. Great Job!
"CAN NOT PLAY WITH HIM CAN NOT WIN WITH HIM CAN NOT COACH WITH HIM CAN'T DO IT" ONE OF THE BEST LINES EVER LMAO
This is the best thing on the Internet, and it's not even close.
yeah... i know a few radio stations that use that line as drops whenever talking about any football team that plays poorly
@LeiKeli47's "Mike Singletary 'Can't Do It' " reference brought me here in her single "Elian's Theme"
He inspired me as a kid growing up in Chicago. I wish he could have been that coach of that 9ers run last year....
This speech reminds of my co workers at Wal Mart who come in late every single day, take 25 minute breaks, take an hour and a half lunch hours and also go to the bathroom multiple times during their shift. CANNOT WORK WITH THEM....😂
much respect to coach singletary.
i love his heart and mentality. go niners
i honestly think he will be one of the best coach's even in football. he just needs this next draft. and i bet he will get a 12-4 season next year. i hope he gets that. cuz his style of coaching is a very strick and dissaplend style. and i love it!
