Sir Alex Ferguson's Insightful Interview With Charlie Rose
During the engaging interview Ferguson spoke of the U.S. civil war and engaged in banter about Abraham Lincoln and General George Patton. Ferguson is a true manager/coach, looking at the pitch (soccer field) like it's a battlefield. In that vein, Ferguson also spoke of seeing real live blueprints of Patton's battle plans.
When Ferguson sold Beckham to Real Madrid, I must admit, I didn't understand or support it, as he had become a national treasure in Britain. However, during this week's interview, Ferguson warned once a player becomes bigger than the team, it's time for them to be traded and that was the problem in the Beckham situation.
Life after Ferguson has been rough for Manchester United. Ferguson's successor, whom he appointed, has made some decisions I do not agree with. The Telegraph reported new manager, David Moyes, fired much of Ferguson's coaching staff, people the team are used to and rely on, in favor of his folks he brought in. It was a mistake discarding the winning blueprint left behind by Ferguson. All great leaders leave a solid blueprint behind, whether it be sports, business or politics.
This past weekend Moyes also told the team and the world, via an interview, he does not believe Manchester United has a chance at winning Champion's League. I was stunned a manager/coach said something like that. Even if he believes that, you don't tell a team/athlete that. It was surprising to read a man on Moyes' level do that (not that I'm complaining as Manchester United's rival Arsenal is my favorite).
However, right is right and wrong is wrong and you just don't say things like that to your athletes.
Having stated that, I have to wonder how Ferguson feels about Moyes firing his coaching staff and telling the team forget about winning Champion's League because you won't. I would love to state it's reverse psychology, but I know better - it was just a terrible idea.
I watched an old Mike Tyson fight a few weeks ago, remembering how much (my family and) I loved to watch him box when I was a kid in the 80s, especially the way he'd quickly knock people out. Seriously, if you quickly went to the kitchen for some water or the bathroom to pee, you'd miss the fight. Tyson would crick his neck, then promptly kick your butt.
Tyson went into the ring with the attitude and visage of a gladiator. He didn't flinch and tried to psych out his opponents before he even threw the first punch. It was his game face and it worked. Tyson stated if he stared you down with confidence and you flinched, he knew he had you (meaning you were going to lose the match). Moyes telling the world Manchester United won't win Champion's League was a major flinch empowering rivals. Call it the flinch "heard around the world."
Psychology is a big part of sports. Lining up the mind with the body creates a better performance. A demoralized, panicked and unsure mind will translate into an inferior performance. If your own manager/coach is telling you your not going to win, that's how you're going to play, riddled with doubt and defeat the minute you get out there.
My dad, who played football internationally for Jamaica beginning at age 19, then went on to coach football and cricket, has always emphasized sports psychology as a great tool in winning. He's right. Sports psychology has helped teams all over the world win.
I love sports and in watching many an event, anytime you see an athlete getting down on themselves or falling apart during play, if they don't mentally get it together fairly quickly, they will lose. Going out there with and maintaining confidence will boost your performance. It means a clear, focused, sharp mind giving the body accurate and precise instructions during play.

Rupert Murdoch's News Corp Criminally Accessed Sir Alex Ferguson's Medical Records And Blackmailed Him With It
Alex Ferguson
This week it was revealed in the British Parliament's phone hacking hearings that Rupert Murdoch's News Corp, which owned the newspaper News of the World, before shuttering it in utter disgrace this past summer, criminally accessed the medical records of Manchester United and England's national football coach, Sir Alex Ferguson. They blackmailed Ferguson into not publishing his medical records, by demanding he give them stories.
News Corp's James Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch, Rupert Murdoch and Elisabeth Murdoch
As I stated in 2009 (click here for lawsuit) and more recently a month ago in a Judiciary Report article (click here), my medical records were criminally accessed with excerpts of emails, computer files and calls between myself and the hospital, illegally published verbatim in the newspaper as general medical articles, which pardon the pun, is very sick. Who are you to be publishing items from people's private medical records. That's a felony.
[Article Background: This is a continuation of the phone hacking series of articles regarding the story I broke first via a police complaint. Since the time of the original police complaint, over 20 people have been arrested for phone hacking. I was alerted to phone hacking due to Madonna's unlawful behavior in conjunction with Rupert Murdoch's News Group Newspapers/News Corp].
STORY SOURCE
News of the World accessed Alex Ferguson's medical records
December 19, 2011 6:28 pm - Never mind Sienna Miller and Steve Coogan, the News of the World also got their grubby hands on Fergie’s medical records. The Leveson Inquiry into phone hacking at the News of the World rumbles on and today a former reporter at the now defunct paper, Matt Driscoll, revealed how he managed to get his hands on the Scot’s medical records. The paper were acting on a tip that Fergie was in bad health.
"My sports editor said 'Leave it with me, I can see what we can come up with.' That same day I got a call from the sports editor: 'You're absolutely right, the story is true, I've got his medical records with me at the moment,'" said Driscoll...
"It was put to Alex Ferguson that we wouldn't use this information and in the end it was mentioned to him that [we'd] keep it quiet and out of the public domain and because of that he then started co-operating with the paper … a few weeks later he gave us some stories to use in the paper," said Driscoll.

Sir Alex Ferguson Could Face Fine For BBC Boycott
Sanctions For Continued Snub
Alex Ferguson
Manchester United manager, Alex Ferguson, is facing sanctions if he continues to boycott the BBC, for doing a terrible piece on his son, who was later cleared of wrongdoing. I don't know why certain people at the BBC like to get so personal and defamatory with others, spooling in their family members into abuses of the Queen's airwaves.
Exactly who's running the BBC that they have fallen afoul of so many people. It is supposed to be a government trust, paid for by Britons' tax dollars, yet certain social and political activists seek employment there to incite trouble and their own agenda, that sometimes breaks the law.

Man U faces sanctions for Ferguson's BBC boycott
LONDON — Manchester United will be punished by the English Premier League if manager Alex Ferguson keeps boycotting the British Broadcasting Corporation in the upcoming season.
Ferguson — the most successful manager in British soccer history — has refused to speak to the BBC for six years since an investigation was aired questioning the business dealings of his son Jason, who was then working as a soccer agent. He was not found guilty of wrongdoing.
The Premier League is introducing the new rule, which will take effect at the start of the season in August. It will force the 68-year-old Ferguson to speak to the BBC, which pays to show highlights of matches on its popular evening Match of the Day program, and BBC Radio Five Live, which airs live commentaries...
