In partnership with
I am not a huge “TV show” guy.
Football season just completely dominates my television consumption. Plus, since I moved in with my girlfriend, if it’s not a sporting event on the screen I have to settle for Summer House or Love Island.
Honestly though, great options for mindless gribble while I click clack these diaries. Nothing gives you an inspiring deep thought like watching an Australian lady be forced to kiss her ex-boyfriend from the real world.
But you know what, football season is winding down and I only have two more Pats games left on the TV until next September.
Sooooo, on Tuesday night we randomly threw on Ted Lasso while we ate dinner (the GF makes a meaaaaan delicious turkey meatball).
We got about 1.5 episodes in, and boy I’ve been so inspired by a Hollywood film in my entire life.
This guy Ted, man. He’s something else.
I know I’m late to this show. Came out in 2020 and been told 1000 times I would look like the flick. Like I said, I don’t watch many shows.
Ted Lasso is an absolute genius that knows how to rally a team together like no other.
When everyone wants to doubt you. When people hate you. Blindy for no reason at all. He does the unthinkable.
He kills ‘em with kindness.
Ted drowns out the negativity and fills it with positivity.
Even if it means doing it delusionally.
You might sound stupid. You might look dumb.
But it will become contagious.
An infection of pure joy takes over.
Again, I’m only 1.5 episodes in but I’ve seen what I need to see out of this guy.
He’s the ultimate standard of leadership.
Uniting people to accomplish a like-minded goal is one of the hardest things in the entire world to achieve.
I look forward to watching the rest of the Ted Lasso series. I’m sure it won’t be the only Diary he inspires in the next few weeks.
But first I’ll be a little busy…

What we did as Boston sports fans to be so spoiled like this? I am not sure. But I am here for the ride.
Mike Vrabel reminds me a lot of Ted Lasso.
BUT I will not channel my inner Ted Lasson on this trip. When I land and see the color orange on any other side
This is war. The dark knight rises AGAIN. The New England Patriots are here. So unless you’re joining the death star trip to Santa Clara…
Get lost and see you in your email inbox week for another thriller.
