"Real" self confidence doesn't need to advertise itself
while I agree with you on "projection", It applies both ways. People who always go after football players for being
soft because the game in not like the 1950s to 1970s or whatever. These old men yelling at the cloud that they
think NFL or Rams tackling soft, players are not tough, the rules are weak, blah, blah, blah, "I wanna see tough hitting, line up at 2-technique and kicks some butt" stuff that that.
Like you say, on the other hand, pPeople with real confidence don't advertise ... I get it and there is truth to it but also note that soft people say others are soft.
Then there are some guys who are simply happy, confident people. I don't know this kid from Adam. Don't know what he's about
so if he becomes a Rams I will not hold this against him. Rams have had plenty of guys like that over the years, some of them
were good and others not.
So, I take your point, but I will not go too far with it, given the fact that a lot of non-rough people sure talk tough.
I find it a bit humorous.
