Some reading for Jets coach who tripped player

Here's some helpful reading for the N.Y. Jets coach who tripped a Miami Dolphins player in yesterday's game. (As a long-time Jets fan, I hate to see the team sullied by an incident reminiscent of Woody Hayes.) "I made a mistake that showed a total lapse in judgment," strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi said in a statement. Well, while he repents, maybe he can read a few pages in "Liam Wins the Game, Sometimes: A Story About Losing With Grace" by Jane Whelen Banks or "Winning Isn't Everything!" by Jennifer Moore-Mallinos. A book report would be nice, too.
