Jack says it it periodically throughout the series. Larry says it every other episode in season 7. It got to the point I predicted when he would say it lol.
-
Terrell Owens had just three top 5 seasons in his career, finishing 4th in 2000 (1,451), 3rd in 2001 (1,412) and 5th in 2007 (1,355). He did lead the NFL in yards per game in 2000, but he missed two games which pushed him down to 4th.
-
Larry Fitzgerald had four top 5 seasons and one second place season in 2008 (1,431).
-
Randy Moss finished 2nd three separate times (2002, 2003 and 2007) and 3rd twice (1998, 1999).
For anyone who wants to think of this as a "so and so led the league in receiving yards more times than TO, Fitz and Moss combined", here are some names: Brandon Lloyd, T.Y. Hilton, Muhsin Muhammad, David Boston, Antonio Freeman and Rob Moore.
"I get very emotional when I talk to actors because, I am you. I know your hearts. I don't know 'you', but I know your hearts. I know the desire. And I know the tragedy of laziness. The tragedy of entitlement. The tragedy of 'It's about me'. It's not about you, It's DEEPLY about you and it's not about you. Once you understand that... You're free." - Larry Moss.
Larry Moss - It's Not About You.
Hey guys,
Just wanted to share some wisdom from the world renowned acting teacher Larry Moss. Lately I've been facing my own self doubt again and have always found my way back into reading 'The Intent to Live' (which if you haven't read you definitely should) by Larry Moss, a truly incredible text. His words and passion for the craft have inspired me time and time again to keep going and pursue my dream.
If you're an Aussie based actor and you're looking to deepen your knowledge of the craft, he's coming through Brisbane, Sydney & Melbourne over April - May. Be sure to check him out, he's not one to miss and this could be his last trip to Australia.
If you're like me and you're feeling like there's no end to how punishing this industry can feel at times, just remember - "It's not about you".
In an argument with a Cardinals buddy of mine. He’s adamant that Fitz is the #2 WR of all time behind Jerry while I’m adamant that Randy is #2. I know Larry has evolved as a receiver throughout his career moving from outside threat to slot later in his career but Moss has Home run playmaking ability every play.
One of the biggest arguments he has is that the Cardinals never had real solid QB play outside of a couple years with Warner etc. and even with that he put up incredible numbers. What are your thoughts?
"I say to people read 3 plays a week for a year. Imagine your brain looks like at the end of a year? What it does, is that it makes your imagination grow, it makes your emotional life grow, it makes your intellect grow, it makes your humor grow, it makes your compassion grow. You begin to see the 'awe' of the writers gift to us."
- Larry Moss.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to share some wisdom from the world renowned acting teacher Larry Moss. Lately I've been facing my own self doubt as a filmmaker again and have always found my way back into reading 'The Intent to Live' (which if you haven't read you definitely should) by Larry Moss, a truly incredible text which as an artist fresh out of uni has given me a bottomless well of hope draw from.
If you're an Aussie based artist, creative or even someone looking for hardcore life-coaching, I HIGHLY urge you to come to one of his classes. He's coming through Brisbane, Sydney & Melbourne over April - May. Be sure to check him out, he's not one to miss and this could be his last trip to Australia.
Halfway into season 7 and holy shit they are the most annoying people in this series
BSW: Do you believe anybody can be taught to act?
Moss: The basics, sure. But I find that most people who go to acting class don't love acting. They love attention. There comes a point in your development as an actor when you find out whether you have the imagination, the love of the literature, the love to create a character, and the desire to be a conduit of the human experience.
When you're excited, not about you, but about ideas and writing and other lives, you're an actor. If you just want someone to tell you you're wonderful, you're not an actor, you're a show-off and will probably give up acting. Furthermore, you're probably self-destructive, because you're not interested in acting but in satisfying some emotional aspect from the past. If you don't have a good relationship with yourself, no matter how talented you are, you're going to screw up your career.
Your motive can't be to try to heal your past by acting. You've got to have a relationship with yourself in which you believe that you're valuable and have something to give. Acting is about what you get to give, not what you try to get.

Currently reading this book for my acting class. It's incredible. Larry Moss is an incredible author and coach, and has provided me with new techniques and ways of going about acting that have truly changed my whole perspective on acting. Read it!
Not only is he a huge douche with constantly busting Jack's chops but man what a hypocrite... he suspends Renee Walker for "circumventing a direct order" and what was it that Larry ended up doing only moments prior? The Vice President told him to stay #$%!ing put and he goes and runs off to flaunt his own "authority"......ugh lol this was definitely one of those characters i would have loved to have reached in through the screen to strangle.
Thoughts?
This is mind-boggling to me when you consider guys like TY Hilton and Brandon Lloyd have both led the league for a season.
