You're supposed to learn from failures

You always fail at things. During the 7-0 start many people noticed failures. I'm a director at a large tech company and we celebrate people who notice things going wrong before they completely change culture and have significant impacts. We have bi-weekly reviews and retrospectives throughout the company to learn from failures; and celebrate successes.

I have no faith this staff knows how to learn from failure and neither do half our fans who just call such posters "doom and gloom".

Failure is okay. Not doing anything to mitigate it isn't. Fire people who don't subscribe to this.

One more point: The consistent "lack of execution" narrative from coaches is pathetic.

You're asking these young men to execute things they're not equipped to do well. 

They're trying. A sports car won't tow a boat very well no matter how much you try. Try learning how to use your sport car in ways it's likely to bring value instead?
