As a two-time Super Bowl champion, three-time Pro-Bowler, first round draft pick, and former Jim Thorpe Award recipient, Malcolm Jenkins knows a thing or two about winning. Over the course of his thirteen-year NFL career, the now retired defensive back's triumphs extend beyond that on the football field. As a successful entrepreneur he has seen the blossoming of his business ventures with an eponymous company named Malcolm Inc., and a media conglomerate named Listen Up Media. As a philanthropist, he strives to make a positive difference in the lives of young people in underserved communities through The Malcolm Jenkins Foundation. And as the father of two daughters, he understands the challenges of loving his children, and preparing them for an often unkind and hostile world. But for every triumph, there is a tragedy, for every loss, a lesson. In What Winners Won't Tell You, Jenkins share with readers the insight he's gained from winning and losing alike. One moment, Jenkins is riding high from being the only NFL Player to have Super Bowl victories against Hall of Fame quarterbacks, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady and then he's navigating the harrowing low of a divorce from the mother of his children. In another moment he's advocating for the advances of Black people in America, and then feuding publicly about the direction of this advocacy. Providing fans and readers alike with an intimate portrayal of life on and off the field, detailed breakdowns of his greatest moments against the games premiere players, and poignant reflections about what it means to straddle the narrow line between victory and defeat, What Winners Won't Tell You is the best kept secret for those who want to know what it takes to be a champion.

"Authorized biography of the 2023 Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee! Meet Joe Thomas--one of the NFL's most reliable offensive linemen ever--in this up-close portrait drawn from interviews with family, friends, coaches, teammates, and Joe himself. His story goes beyond lining up for a record-setting 10,363 consecutive snaps for the Cleveland Browns . . . As a youth, the fast-growing three-sport star valued friendship and preparation in everything he did. A bit of a goofball off the field, Joe had an uncanny ability to turn on a competitive switch on the gridiron. In college, he endured a tragedy and overcame a serious injury to become a big-time football star for Wisconsin in the fiercely competitive Big Ten (and a top shot putter, too). On NFL Draft Day in 2007, Joe endeared himself to fans when, despite being forecast as a top pick, he skipped the glitzy ceremony to go fishing with family and friends instead. With the Browns, he made the Pro Bowl in each of his first 10 seasons and excelled even while playing for teams that struggled. (He protected 20 starting quarterbacks--another league record.) He was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2023. This is the story of an extraordinary guy and an exceptional career."--Amazon.com.

This is the story of Charles Hoffman "Hopper" Kennedy. He became a high school football and basketball coach in the early 1920s. He worked his way up the ladder by working with each of his players to help each of them to believe in themselves to become the best they could be and to help them form into a team. He would scout the teams he would be playing--sometimes going to their school to see the plans they were working on to defeat him. His big break came when they hired him at Lynch, Kentucky. His team had nineteen shutouts in a row, twenty-seven shutouts in three seasons. He was chosen to coach the all-star game of 1942 in Kentucky and won the game. He had two players go to the NFL: #8, Harold Mullin, tackle, 214 lbs., six feet three; and #27, Joe Hollingsworth, running back, 189 lbs., six feet two. Hopper did this at thirty-nine years old. He also played semipro basketball from 1926 to 1928 where he won the MVP for being the center. He got his nickname Hopper in college when he played world billiards champion. Willie Hoppe started calling him Hopper. He then went to Lockport, New York, to coach high school football and basketball. He turned both teams into having a winning season. He talked to each player for hours past the practice into the night. By doing this, he formed the foundation of building his players into champions. That method won the games.

Sports Psychology is one of the new upcoming sciences at the present time. This practice focuses on training athletes to use their mental capacities along with their physical talent to reach what is known as peak performance. Athletes those are without having good sports psychological skills and having only physical talent means nothing at all. Psychological Skills are the mental qualities or abilities which are determinant for the purpose of enhancing performance, increasing enjoyment, or achieving greater sport and physical activity self-satisfaction in the competitive sports. PST program helps the athletes to have tremendous abilities to psych themselves up for competition to manage their stress; to concentrate intensely and to set challenging but realistic goals, to have the ability to visualize themselves being successful and then doing what they visualized as a part of training and to excel in the world of competitive sports (Murphy & Tammen, 1998). A great deal of research effort has concentrated on attempting to predict performance from psychological variables. Through evidence it has been proposed that sport psychologists can develop athletes' performances by enhancing their psychological skills sideways. Some of the most important mental skills are competition anxiety, motivation, goal setting, relaxation, visualization, self-talk , self-awareness and control, concentration and confidence (Robert S. Weinberg and Daniel Gould, 2003). Among these PSTs, we treated only competition anxiety and sport motivations.
