It's actually quite the opposite in Arizona. It's encouraged to lose your temper and remain extremely emotional. Some say it's toxic, but the true football guys know it's passion. If you're not the angriest guy in the locker room after a devastating lose, then do you even care? If you're no cussing out your teammate after he commits a penalty, are you really holding him accountable? There's the saying "keep your friends close and your enemies closer". It's also commonly mentioned that team chemistry is more important than overall skill. Well, what better way to get a team nice and tight by having everyone of your teammates be your enemy. It's these unique approaches taken by the management at Arizona that has lead them to winning season after winning season. "oH tHaT dOeSn'T sOuNd fUn" the nerds may say. Well you know what is fun? Winning. You know what's not fun? Losing. So go ahead and be buddy with your teammates. I'm going to continue to hate mine.
