Insiders, Alex Honnold recently climbed El Capitan (a 3,000-foot climb) in four hours...with NO ROPE! I can't think of a better speaker for a team to listen to on the importance of preparation and doing EVERYTHING right the first time. That said, what is the most unusual, non-football speaker, you've ever heard a coach bringing in to talk to his or her team?
Two years ago during training camp, McCarthy had Erik Weihenmeyer – the first blind person to reach the summit of Mount Everest – speak to the team. I wish I’d gotten to hear that speech.
