After all, who better to solve your life problems than the ultimate molder of men?
I need some advice, Coach.

Hes gonna fight and hes gonna lose.
So you know what you do?
You suck it up.
Thats what being a man is.
I dont like ironing, but my mom keeps complaining about wrinkles in my shirt.
What do I do?Jacob, 16
You iron the damn shirt, thats what you do.
Listen to your mother.
You listen to her and you respect her.
I have a crush on a guy, but he just humiliated me in front of my entire class.
But I think I still like him.
What should I do, Coach?
Hes thinking about sex, or hes hungry.
Those are the only two options.
To me, it sounds like this is just some guy.
Thats all he is, just some guy.
I cant figure out how to use a corkscrew, so I always buy twist-off wine.
What does that say about me?
Jane, 27
Ill ask Tami and get back to you.
My mom says I need glasses, but I dont want to be made fun of at school.
I hate coffee but I suck at waking up in the morning.
What do I do?
John, 21
Get your ass up, thats what you do.
Be thankful youre not on my football team.
What should I do, Coach?
Joe, 15
You keep going.
You dont give up.
Its about striving to be better than everybody else.
I didnt say you needed to be better than everyone else.
But you gotta try.
Thats what character is: Its in the trying.
Tell me what to do, Coach.
Rachel, 26
Its a dog.
You practice over and over again until that dog gets it right.
And he will get it right.
Remember: It always looks bad before it gets better.
I was just cut from my school soccer team, and now I dont know what to do.
Tim, 14
Im not really sure why were talking about soccer.
Footballs a real sport.
But regardless, you cant beat yourself up because youre taking chances on things.
Remember that success is not a goal.
So Im going to ask you to do me a favor: Do the best you might.
My girlfriend just told me shes pregnant, but Im not ready to be a father.
What do I do?
Patrick, 19
Nobodys ever ready to be a father.
I wasnt, I can tell you that.
I wasnt ready for the responsibility.
You cannot be prepared for something like that, believe me.
But you grab the bull by the horns and you move on.
Nobody said being a dads gonna be easy.
How do I use a fax machine?
Sophia, 20
What do you mean?
You read the instruction manual, thats how.
Coach, what do I do?
Matt, 25
Ill tell you what you dont do.
You dont just stand by and watch it happen.
Should I go for it?
George, 35
A man takes care of his wife, so the answer to your question is no.
Im only 20 years old.
What would you do, Coach?
Dan, 20
Listen to me, son.
Youre not supposed to know what youre doing with the rest of your life at 20.
But you do what you think is best.
Thats all you’re free to do.
