He yelled, "What about the Wright brothers? Did they ever give up?" "No!" the team resounded. "Did John Elway ever throw in the towel?" Again, The team yelled "No!"
"Did Elmer Williams ever quit?"
There was a long silence. Finally one player was bold enough to ask, "Who is Elmer Williams? We have never heard of him." The coach triumphantly snapped back, "Of course you never heard of him - He quit!"
